Can you believe Valentine’s Day is almost upon us?

Whether you celebrate the holiday or not, I’m always amazed at how fast the stores seem to get rid of their holiday products and in with the heart-shaped decorations and goodies. I was at the store just a few days after Christmas, and I did a triple-take, as I saw ALL of the heart decor going up.

Ummm excuse me…New Year’s didn’t even happen yet. Honestly, I don’t know why this still surprises me, as this happens every year!

And speaking of Valentines’s Day, do you celebrate it with your sweetie? Or maybe with your friends? Target has the most adorable spot of Valentine’s goodies, and they have a section focused on “Gal-entines Day.” How cute is that for all of the ladies?

While the hubster and I aren’t big into Valentine’s Day, you may remember that we always skip the fancy dinner out and order a heart-shaped pizza. It’s our Valentine’s Day tradition, and this will be our sixth year doing so! And you know me…I could eat pizza every day, so eating it in the shape of a heart is just too fun (and delicious!).

Along with our pizza, I’m going to make a mini dessert that’s perfect to celebrate Valentine’s Day, whether you’re into the mushy holiday or not!

These Mini Strawberry Heart Pies are the perfect dessert for spoiling your sweetie on Valentine’s Day or for entertaining those party guests. A pre-made pie crust is cut into the shape of hearts and then filled with sweet strawberry jam. It’s an impressive treat that looks time-consuming but is so easy to make!

And you know me…I’m all about the mini (and easy) desserts! Mini foods just seem to taste better, especially in pie form.

These Mini Strawberry Heart Pies are almost like eating a little heart-shaped pop tart! The outside is crispy and flaky, while the inside is filled with gooey and sweet strawberry jam. Mmm mmm good!

And so easy to make, too! I used two pre-made, refrigerated pie crusts and then used a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut hearts from each one. Then, I filled the inside wit strawberry jam, sealed the heart with a fork, and then brushed it with an egg wash to get that golden appearance.

I chose to dip these mini pies in a vanilla glaze and then cover with sprinkles, but you could easily leave that off if you prefer. I also dusted the outsides of the crust with sparkling sugar, just to add a touch of sweetness.

If you’re looking for an impressively easy sweet treat for you Valentine, or just to satisfy your sweet tooth, then these Mini Strawberry Heart Pies will hit the spot! Crisp, flaky, and oh-so delicious, this simple dessert is sure to wow everyone!
