Trader Joes Pie Crusts....delicious!

Has anyone tried these? They are so good! I usually get the Pillsbury crust or even Aldis which are pretty good if you can't be bothered to make your own. I have to say, after trying Trader Joes I don't think Ill be making my own ever again,lol. When I unrolled it, I could see little chunks of butter all throughout. They are in the freezer section and cost $3.99 which is more than the Pillsbury but so worth it. Next time I go I'm buying a few to stock up

I buy them regularly just to have around if I feel like baking. I also use them to top chicken pot pies, and I roll them out defrosted, spread with soft butter sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top of butter roll up cut into slices and back 375 20 min. Just a nice sweet treat. They are great. Just like homemade.

Wow! Reminds me of being in my mom's kitchen. That's exactly what she did with any scraps of pie crust - and it was a real treat for us. Better than any bakery I go to today!

In the south, we call these stickies. My mama made the best!

Good idea Duclane. I'm definitely buying a few for the freezer next time I go. There was only one box left so they are obviously very popular.

Can't make crusts, so this is a great recommendation!

Thanks for the heads-up. I love so many TJs products and I'll have to look for this one.

I am so glad I read these posts! I had never heard of stickies. I have made pastry cookies with left-over pastry, just sprinkling smaller pieces of rolled out pastry with a little sugar & cinnamon before baking. But, the idea of making pastry especially for stickies and sprinkling the rolled out dough and then rolling up and slicing & baking sounds delicious.

Thanks again.
