    Ingredients

    • 2 refrigerated pie crusts
    • 2 ounces cream cheese softened
    • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
    • 3 tablespoons white sugar
    • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 1/8 teaspoon allspice
    • 1 egg yolk
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • Egg wash one egg beaten
    • Cinnamon sugar for topping (4 tablespoons sugar + 1 tsp cinnamon)
    • 10 candy eyeballs

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 375 F and line large baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
    • To make the pumpkin pie filling, in a bowl beat together cream cheese, granulated sugar and brown sugar.
    • Mix in the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and allspice.
    • Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract.
    • Cover bowl and chill until you’re ready to assemble the pastries.
    • Place refrigerated pie crust on a floured surface. Cut off round edges to make a square. Cut out 10 rectangles about 4 x 3 inches in size and set aside.
    • Place second pie crust on floured surface. Cut out 1/2 inch strips.
    • Arrange the rectangles, spaced apart on prepared baking sheet and spread about 1-2 tablespoons of pumpkin pie filling onto each rectangle, leaving rim on all sides uncoated. Brush uncoated edges with egg wash.
    • Top with strips to create mummy look, then seal edges with your fingertips, and trim the excess of the strips. Brush the stripes with that egg wash, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
    • Bake until golden brown about 20 minutes.
    • Stick candy eyes onto cooled mummies.
    • Store hand pies in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
