Sweet baked treats baked with strawberry pie filling, then topped with powdered sugar. These come from the Magnolia Bakery cookbook, More From Magnolia: Recipes from the World Famous Bakery. For those who never heard of them, Magnolia Bakery is well known here in New York City. Their cupcakes are a guilty pleasure I occasionally treat myself to... red velvet anyone? I recently saw this posted on My Kitchen Adventure, and when I saw she calculated the points and they were only 3 points each, I knew I had to make these. My only change was swapping out the cherry pie filling for strawberry filling, but any pie filling would work. | |

1/2 cup | unsalted butter, softened |
1 1/2 cups | granulated sugar |
4 large | eggs, at room temperature |
1 tsp. | pure vanilla extract |
2 cups | all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup | canned strawberry pie filling |
confectioner's sugar for dusting |
baking spray
Preheat oven to 350°. Spray Baking Pam in a 13 x 9- inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter with the granulated sugar until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla. Add the flour and mix thoroughly.
Spread the dough evenly in the prepared pan. With a small, sharp knife (or toothpick), score into twenty-four 2-inch squares. Place a teaspoon of pie filling in the center of each scored square. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the pan comes out clean. Cool to room temperature, then sprinkle with confectioner's sugar before cutting and serving.
