Ingredients
- One 14.1-ounce box of 2 pie crusts
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 3 ounces cream cheese (a little under half a block), at room temperature
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- One 2-ounce package sliced almonds
- 2 teaspoons turbinado sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Roll out one pie crust on a work surface lightly dusted with flour and cut into 4 equal wedges with a pizza cutter or knife. Spread 2 teaspoons of cream cheese over each piece, leaving about 1/2 inch bare around the edges. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons chocolate chips over the cream cheese and gently fold the crust over, creating a triangular hand pie. Using a fork, press the edges to seal, and place the pies on a large ungreased baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining crust.
- Brush the butter over each hand pie and lightly press the sliced almonds into the tops of the hand pies in a single layer. Brush the almonds with a little bit of melted butter and lightly sprinkle the turbinado sugar over each hand pie.
- Bake until the tops are golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes. Let rest a couple of minutes and serve warm or at room temperature

Reviews
Great! We have nut allergies, so I made a super easy, quick, and yummy streusel topping. And I made my own pie crust. Better fresh out of the oven or warmed up. Nevertheless, amazing! Must try.
These were very good and very easy! I used slivered almonds because I didn’t have sliced almonds, worked great! Will make again!
