FOR THE CRUST:
1-1/2 cup Flour
1-1/2 teaspoon Sugar
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1/4 cups Shortening, Cut Into Small Pieces, Chilled
1/4 cups Butter, Cut Into Small Pieces, Chilled
10 Tablespoons Ice Water
_____
FOR THE FILLING:
2 Tablespoons Sugar, Plus Extra To Sprinkle On Crust
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 cup Peeled And Diced Apple, Heaping
1 whole Egg, Beaten With 1 Teaspoon Water For Egg Wash

1
Make crust:
2
Combine flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Using on/off turns, cut in shortening and butter until coarse meal forms. Blend in enough ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to form moist clumps (I used about 8). Gather dough and form into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until firm, about an hour.
3
Make filling:
4
Combine sugars with cinnamon and toss to coat apple. Place in a strainer over a bowl for about 30 minutes to allow some of the juices to drain.
5
Preheat oven to 400u00b0F.
6
Roll out dough on a clean, floured work surface. Using the pie mold, cut out 14-16 stars. If you don't have a pie mold you could simply cut into small squares or try using a cookie cutter.
7
Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the apple mixture into each pie.
8
Wet the edge of each pie with water and top with another cut-out before pressing into the pie mold. Place on a baking sheet lined with a Silpat. Brush with egg wash mixture and sprinkle with sugar.
9
Bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating your pan halfway through, until crust is golden brown. Remove to a rack and cool completely (if you can wait!) before serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
