Ingredients
  

Pie Crust
  • 12 tablespoons 1 1/2 sticks very cold unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup very cold vegetable shortening
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Nutella

Method
 

Pie Crust Directions
  1. Directions Dice the butter and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball.
  2. Dump out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cut the dough in half.
  3. Roll out one half of the pie dough to about 1/4" in depth. Use 2-3" heart shaped cookie cutters to cut out hearts.
  4. For regular pie- Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board.
Adding Nutella
  1. Place heaping teaspoon on one side of the heart shaped piece of pie dough, Place candy stick halfway up from bottom of the heart.
    Cover with another heart shape dough. Pinch dough together.
    Brush with an egg wash (one egg mixed with a tablespoon of water)
    Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
