Blackberry Stout Mini Pies with Beer Whipped Cream

Servings 12 mini pies

Ingredients
  

For the pies:

  • Pie dough enough for one crust
  • 1 lbs blackberries fresh or frozen
  • cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup stout
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

For the whipped cream:

  • 1 cup heavy cream chilled
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbs stout

Instructions
 

  • Roll the pie dough out on a lightly floured surface. Using a 3 to 4 inch circle cutter, cut out 12 circles (if you don’t have a cutter this size, a wine or margarita glass works well).
  • Press into the wells of a muffin tin, poke holes in the bottom of each crust.
  • Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes or until light golden brown, allow to cool.
  • In a pot over medium-high heat, stir together the blackberries, sugar, beer, salt and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer and stir until very thick, about 10 minutes (frozen berries will take longer).
  • Spoon filling into the crusts.
  • Add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla to the bowl of a stand mixer, beat on high until soft peaks form. Slowly add the beer, mixing until peaks return.
  • Spoon the whipped cream on the pies. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
