📝 Preparation Steps
1
Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2
Beat cream cheese with a hand mixer until no lumps remain. Mix in ¼ cup sugar and vanilla extract.
3
Unroll pie crusts, one at a time. Cut 2” circles of crust, re-rolling as needed.
(113g) cream cheese (softened)4 ouncespie crusts (from scratch or from a package of 2 refrigerated crusts)2(28g) unsalted butter (, melted)2 tablespoons
4
Place half the circles on the prepared cookie sheets. Spoon a little bit of the cheesecake mixture into the center. (I found it easiest to transfer the cheesecake mixture to a ziploc bag with the tip cut off, and pipe it on.) Wet your finger with a bit of water and run it around the edge of the pie crust. Place the remaining pie crust rounds on top of the filled ones. Use the tines of a fork to press and seal each pie.
5
Bake for ⏱️ 15-20 minutes, until they begin to turn golden. Let cool until you can touch without burning your fingers.
6
Meanwhile, melt butter in a microwave safe dish. In a separate bowl, stir together remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.

7
Take each still warm pie and brush with butter, then place in the cinnamon sugar and turn over a few times to thoroughly coat. Place on another cookie sheet lined with wax paper to cool.
