Pie Crust Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 pie crust
• all purpose flour for dusting
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon whole milk
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 0.75 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.13 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1.5 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted and cooled

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.

2. 2

   Roll premade pie crust to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured work surface, and cut using desired cookie cutter shapes.

3. 3

   Transfer cut-outs to prepared baking sheets, leaving about a 1/2-inch space between each cookie. Repeat with remaining dough, rerolling scraps once.

4. 4

   Whisk together egg and milk in a small bowl until combined. Using a pastry brush, brush the tops of each cookie evenly with egg mixture; discard remaining egg mixture. Whisk together sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl until evenly combined, sprinkle evenly over brushed cookies.

5. 5

   Bake cookies, one baking sheet at a time, in the preheated oven until the edges and bottoms of cookies just become golden brown, about 15 minutes.

6. 6

   Remove from oven and brush tops of each cookie lightly with melted butter, let cool slightly on baking sheet, about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
