Cherry pie-pie
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. This dough pairs well with any berries, but cherries (thanks to their slightly tart flavor) win you over right away, from the very first bite. Whenever I eat it, I'm instantly reminded of the famous café from the "Twin Peaks" series, where the most delicious "Twin Peaks Cherry Pie" was served. The cherry aroma can be enhanced with cinnamon or vanilla, giving the pie a truly divine fragrance that will fill your entire home. Serve with tea or coffee.
