Ingredients
- 1 1/3 C. all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbsp. sugar
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 stick well-chilled Crisco® Baking Sticks All-Vegetable Shortening
- 3 to 6 Tbsps. ice cold water
- 12 lollipop sticks
- 1/3 C. lemon curd
- 1/4 C. sweetened coconut flakes
- 1 Tbsp. milk
- 1/3 C. white frosting
- 1 tsp. decorative sugar
Directions
- BLEND flour, sugar and salt in medium bowl. Cut in shortening using pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some small pea-sized pieces remaining.
- SPRINKLE 3 Tbsp. ice water over flour mixture. Stir with fork. Add additional ice water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, just until dough holds together firmly when pressed into a ball. Flatten into round disk. Wrap in plastic wrap. Chill 30 minutes.
- HEAT oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough on lightly floured surface into 12-inch circle. Cut dough into 24 (2 1/2-inch) circles using round cookie cutter, rerolling dough scraps as necessary. Arrange 12 dough circles on prepared baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Place 2-inch tip of lollipop stick on top of each circle, resting stick on parchment paper. Stir lemon curd and coconut in small bowl until blended. Spoon evenly onto center of each dough circle. Brush edges with milk. Top with 12 remaining dough circles. Press edges with fork to seal. Pierce tops with fork.
- BAKE 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 10 minutes. Microwave frosting in small microwave-safe bowl on HIGH 5 to 10 seconds. Drizzle over or brush onto pie pops. Sprinkle with decorator sugar. Cool completely on baking sheet.
