    I was wondering why the recipe said 2 hrs inactive prep time- it's been awhile since I saw the show so I'll try refrigerating it next time. I made these only once so far with cherry jam and baked and then toasted them. The jam spilled out on the baking sheet and I need to roll them out a lot thinner next time. I'm thinking of adding 1/8 tsp cinnamon to the dough too for a little more flavor. I'll have to try some of the great savory filling ideas from the reviews too. Thanks!

    I have tried apple pie, chicken pot pie, egg pie. They are a tasty snack. Fun to make.

    My 6 year old nephew and I made the chocolate pies today. We had the same leakage problem as many other reviewers have had. Also, the sugar in the chocolate filling didn't dissolve, making for a very grainy texture. But, when I pan fried one in butter so that we could taste it before the rest were done baking, the buttery crisp crust and the great chocolate flavor (we used Valrhona cocoa powder won us over despite the flaws mentioned above. The baked ones all lost their filling, but wouldn't have been as sinfully delicious as the pan fried one, even if they hadn't.

    I'm not sure why this is rated medium, I thought it was really easy to make. I'm making pies out of everything - leftover stew, pie filling, deli ham or roast beef & cheese, pizza fillings. These are great!

    I tried the chocolate pies and the taste was great, but the filling leaked out to the point that there was only a paper thin layer of chocolate left inside a now hollow pie. I tried the pies on four different occassions and could not seem to work this out. I also tried the pies with a pizza filling, and without the super sweet chocolate filling to mask the bitter flavor of the dough the pie tasted aweful! I love the idea of these pastries so if anyone has any tips they will be greatly appreciated!

    I made them exactly as he showed them, I even watched the show again to make sure. My chocolate filled pies leaked in the oven and covered all my apple pies with chocolate filling. My chocolate pies also leaked all over my frying pan when I pan-fried them. I thik my steam slits were too big.

    My advice for the chocolate ones is to but a lot less filling than you think and make sure your crimps are closed.

    These pies tasted great, I wouldn't discourage anyone from making them, but give yourself around 2 hours.
