These powder puffs are like a different version of Russian teacakes. But enhanced with a chocolate kiss. And the best part? You only need 3 ingredients to make them.

~Ingredients:

1 Sheet Pie Crust that makes a 9 inch Pie, thawed.*

About 15 Chocolate Kisses.**

3/4 Cup Powdered Sugar for Coating.

~Directions:

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with a parchment paper or spray with cooking spray; set aside.

Step 2: Place pie crust on a lightly floured surface and using a pizza wheel, slice into approximately 16 sections, about 2-inch squares. Because the crust is likely a circle, if you make 4 rows of 4, a couple sections may be a bit skimpy so take crust from two skimpy sections and smoosh it together to make a section big enough to contain a Kiss. This is not an exact science, it's okay if not all sections are exactly the same size.

Step 3: Place one chocolate kiss in the center of each section.

Step 4: Using your fingertips, seal the dough at the top to fully contain the kiss. 

Step 5: Pat smooth with your palms and flatten slightly into a mound.

Step 6: Place mound on prepared baking sheet; repeat with remaining crust sections and kisses until gone.

Step 7: Bake for about 15 to 17 minutes, or until crust is just set and done; puffs firm up as they cool. 

Step 8: The tops will appear fairly pale while the undersides will be more golden; don't over bake or the undersides could burn. Watch puffs closely starting at about 13 minutes as all ovens and ingredients vary.

Step 9: Allow the puffs to cool on baking tray for about 15 minutes, or until cool enough to handle before coating each puff thoroughly in confectioners' sugar.

Step 10: Serve immediately or keep in an airtight container for up to 1 week at room temp or in the freezer up to 4 months.

*We made the pie crust at home but you can use a store bought crust instead. If you want to make it at home than check out our Baking Tips & Tricks book for a step by step instruction.

**Mini Peanut Butter Cups or Rolos can be used as a substitute for the Chocolate Kisses.
