Title: Cherry Swirls
Categories: Kids Dessert
Yield: 30 Swirls

1	cn	Cherry-pie filling (1#-5oz)
1	pk	Pie-dough mix
2	tb	Butter or margarine
5	tb	Sugar
2	ts	Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare pie dough according to package directions. Roll out half the dough into a rectangular shape the thickness of a piecrust. Spread half the butter or margarine thinly onto the dough (or dot it on).

Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle half the mixture over the top of the dough.

Place less than half of the cherry-pie filling in a row on the dough, then roll the dough around the cherries. Cut into slices about the width of a cherry.

Put slices on a lightly greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet. If a swirl is missing a cherry, add one before baking. You may also wish to spread a little extra sauce from the pie filling on top of the swirls, but you'll still probably have a little leftover filling.

Repeat with the remaining pie dough and other ingredients.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until slightly browned. Makes approximately 30 swirls.
