Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie dough (Pillsbury)
  • 1 egg beaten well
  • 3 tbsp. chocolate sprinkles
  • 1 tube white decorating frosting
  • 1 tube brown decorating frosting
  • 2 soft caramels
  • 2 brown candy coated chocolates, (M&M�s)
  • 2-in. piece red fruit leather

Supplies

  • 1 cookie sheet
  • Aluminum foil
  • Rolling pin
  • Dora Pie Template
  • 1 small knife
  • Pastry brush
  • 1 wire rack

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Unroll the pie dough onto a clean work surface. Roll out lightly with a rolling pin to make flat. Use the template to cut out Dora's face with a small knife. Transfer to the prepared cookie sheet. Discard scraps.

  2. Step 2

    Brush the hair area with a pastry brush. Sprinkle brushed area with the chocolate sprinkles as the hair. Bake in the oven until golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

  3. Step 3

    Use the white frosting to pipe eyes. Flatten the caramels to a scant 1/4-inch thickness and cut out two 3/4-inch circles. Add the caramel pieces as the eyes. Pipe a dot of white frosting on the caramels and add the chocolate candies as the pupils. Pipe a white dot on top of brown candies as the sparkle in the eye.

  4. Step 4

    Use the red fruit leather and cut out the mouth. Attach mouth piece with a dot of white frosting. Pipe outlines of the mouth, eyes, and nose with the brown frosting.

  5. Step 5

    Place the pie topper on top of desired pie.
