Valentine's Day Pie




This is a Valentine's Day pie I made using THE BEST sour cream pie crust recipe and then a filling of apples and sour cherries(imported from Hungary). I used a slight touch of pink gel food coloring and cut out hearts with a knife to enhance the V-Day effect. This crust recipe is so amazing and flaky and easy and just all around GREAT!! Honestly, I have cried over many a failed pie crust and this recipe never lets me down. Make sure to chill it though!
Sour Cream Double Pie Crust
(the one that Canadian Living always uses in their magazine)
2 1/2 c flour
1/2 c cold butter
1/2 c shortening
1/4 c ice water
3 tbs sour cream
Cut butter and shortening into flour. Whisk water and sour cream together. Drizzle onto flour mixture. Mix together until dough ball is formed. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
