Updated March 26, 2019 What is better than homemade pie? Homemade pie that you can eat with your hands! I love hand pies. They are fun to make and fun to eat. Plus, hand pies are much more forgiving than regular pies. You don’t have to worry about lattice, fluted edges, or trying to cut the pie perfectly. Just grab a hand pie and go! Valentine’s Day is next week and to get ready we made Strawberry Dark Chocolate Hand Pies. Strawberries and dark chocolate are a must on Valentine’s Day. Chocolate dipped strawberries are good, but strawberries and dark chocolate inside buttery pie crust, even better!
Josh and I spent an afternoon making these hand pies together. I was planning on our afternoon being romantic-strawberries and chocolate usually lead to romance, right? 🙂 But Caleb woke up from his nap and wanted to run around. He started walking this week and is constantly on the move. I ended up chasing Caleb while Josh made the pie crust. I finally got Caleb to slow down by bribing him with strawberries. Caleb will do anything for fruit, including sitting still…for a few minutes:) I helped Josh by chopping up the strawberries and chocolate. We assembled the hand pies together and anxiously awaited for them to come out of the oven. We shared a Strawberry Dark Chocolate Hand Pie and cleaned up the kitchen. Our afternoon may have not been romantic, but it was fun and let me tell you, a man doing the dishes? Sexy indeed! 🙂 Celebrate Valentine’s Day with Strawberry Dark Chocolate Hand Pies. You can’t go wrong with a pie for your sweetie pie:)
