    Ingredients

    • 1 box refrigerated pie crust (2 layers)
    • 1 small jar strawberry preserves (good quality)
    • 1 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 teaspoons milk (2 - 3 tsp)

    Directions

    1. 1Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
    2. 2Unroll one of the pie crusts and square the edges. Cut into rectangles. Place 1 tsp of jam in the center of a rectangle and top with another piece of crust. Crimp all four edges. Repeat until all of the pie crust is used.
    3. 3Bake the pop-tarts for about 7 – 8 minutes or until slightly brown. If you don’t want to add extra sugar with the glaze, you can use an egg wash on the tops with some white sugar.
    4. 4Allow the pop tarts to cool for 5 minutes. Meanwhile prepare glaze by adding milk to the sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. Pour over pop tarts and sprinkle with decorating sugar. Serve warm.
    5. 5Leftover pop tarts can be stored in an airtight container. To serve warm, heat in the microwave, or flat in a toaster oven. (Placing in an upright toaster oven is not recommended).

    I don't think you understand the laziness of the Pop-Tart eating demographic. -Quentin
