    I really like making things in pocket pies but this was horrid. I mean beyond horrid. If anything, I would use balsamic viniger instead of that bitter cider. Oh it was gross.

    The dough was very easy to work with after 1 hour refridgeration, (good tip! but I also got the same result that another reviewer said about the chocolate filling, they came out hollow on the inside! and the dough is ok, it's not that tasty, and there's A LOT of it per pocket, not that much filling to sweeten it all up. But, I have to say that this is the first Alton recipe that I didn't really like or had trouble with (and I've used a bunch!

    i really like this recipe. it is very easy and fast and it uses ingredients that i usually have in the pantry. i think of new fillings for them everyday. when i tried the recipe for the first time, i made an apple filling. it was delicious! it tasted just like an apple pie!!

    My mom used to make apple pocket pies but I never quite got the pastry down. Thank you Alton!

    I tried to follow the directions and crimped the edges pretty well with the fork, but I guess I should have put them on a cookie sheet with edges to catch the overflow. All of the pies leaked chocolate and it dripped to the bottom burner and caught fire. Just wanted to recommend everyone else use a pan with side walls!

    My boyfriend and I made these together, and they tasted pretty good, but we had a small problem...they turned out basically hollow. We used both Alton Brown's chocolate filling and a raspberry filling of our own, and when we bit into them, they were filled mostly with air, with the inside slightly coated with the filling. Some of them did "ooze" but this happened on the ones that didn't ooze as well as those that did. Has anyone else had this happen? They tasted pretty good, not amazing.
