Two-Tone Mini Pies

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
2. 2
   Butter and flour mini pie plates. In a bowl, mix the sugar, flour, egg, butter, vanilla, and baking powder. Knead until a dough forms.
3. 3
   Roll out the pie crust until thin. Place pie crust in the mini pie plates. Place a small piece of wax paper on the pie crusts and fill the pies with dried beans to avoid the crusts from swelling while baking. Bake for 20 minutes.
4. 4
   Warm the two-tone cream using a double boiler. Generously fill the mini pies, mixing to create a marble effect.
5. 5
   Return the pies to the oven for 6 to 8 minutes, then cool completely.
6. 6
   Remove the mini pies from the pie plates and serve sprinkled with powdered sugar.
