Homemade McDonalds Holiday Pie
My Homemade McDonalds Holiday Pie is a flaky, creamy custard-filled dessert topped with festive sprinkles for a nostalgic holiday treat.
Ingredients
- 2 (2 count) refrigerated pie crusts
- 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 ½ c. cold milk
- ¼ c. yellow cake mix
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp. water
- Sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat that oven to 350°F. Go ahead and line a baking sheet with parchment paper while you’re at it.
- Unroll your pie crusts and cut each one into 4 even rectangles.
- Mix up the filling. In a medium bowl, whisk together the pudding mix, cold milk, and yellow cake mix until smooth. Stir in a tablespoon of sprinkles for good measure.
- Spoon the filling onto half of your pie crust rectangles, leaving a little room around the edges.
- Top them off with the other rectangles. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
- Cut 3 little slits in the top of each pie so they can breathe while baking.
- Make a quick egg wash by beating the egg with a tablespoon of water. Brush it over each pie, then sprinkle a few more sprinkles on top.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until they’re golden brown and smell like heaven.
- Serve warm and watch folks fall in love.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days (if they last that long).
- Switch up the sprinkle colors for different holidays: red and green for Christmas, pastels for Easter, or go full-on glitter for New Year’s!
- Feeling fancy? Try puff pastry instead of pie crust for a flakier bite.
