1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Unroll one pie crust on a lightly floured surface; cut out 8 circles with a 3-inch cutter or glass. Repeat with the second crust (16 circles total).

3. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling onto the center of 8 circles (the bottoms).

4. With a sharp knife or pastry wheel, cut the remaining 8 circles into thin strips (about 1/4 inch) to make “bandages.”

5. Lay 2–3 strips over each filled circle, crisscrossing slightly to resemble mummy bandages and leaving a small gap near the top for the “eyes.” Trim excess and press edges to seal.

6. Arrange the mummy pies on the prepared baking sheet; add two mini chocolate chips or candy eyeballs in the gap for eyes.

7. Brush pastry strips with the whisked egg and, if desired, sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar.

8. Bake 15–20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

9. Cool on a wire rack before serving. Happy Halloween!
