Strawberry Cream Cheese Campfire Pies

Start by slicing the strawberries. If you don’t have strawberries, you can substitute your favorite fruit like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, or even sliced apples or peaches. In a mixing bowl, add 1 cup powdered sugar to the softened blocks of cream cheese. Add the lemon juice. Use a spoon or a hand-held mixer to beat the sugar into the cream cheese until the mixture is smooth. Spritz each side of the pie tin with nonstick spray. Use your hands to stretch a biscuit out into a roughly square shape large enough to cover one side of the tin. Push the dough into the pan, making sure it reaches the edge so that the top and bottom dough pieces touch as the pies cook. Repeat the process with the opposite side. Spread a layer of sweetened cream cheese over one side of the dough, leaving a thin strip of bare dough all the way around. Pile on your fruit filling of choice over the cream cheese. Fold the two sides of the pie tin together and clip the handles. Hold the tins over an open fire, turning occasionally, cooking for 15 to 20 minutes or until the pies are cooked through. It’s normal for some of the dough to squirt out from the edges of the pie tins. Just trim off the excess before you eat the pies if it gets a little dark from the fire. Open the pie tins and check for doneness. If the crust is golden brown and the pies look finished, pull them from the tin and cook another. We usually run three to four tins at a time so that everyone can eat together. Sprinkle the warm pies with additional powdered sugar or drizzle with honey before serving.Share your recipes at #Timber2Table Have a recipe you would like to suggest as a feature?
