    Title: County Fair Cherry Pie
    Categories: Five, Pies, Pastry, Fruits
    Yield: 6 servings

    1 1/4 c Sugar
    2 tb Cornstarch
    ds Salt
    4 c Pitted tart cherries
    Dough for double-crust pie
    Confectioners' sugar

    In a large saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt;
    stir in cherries. Let stand 30 minutes.

    Cook and stir cherry mixture over medium heat until
    mixture boils and starts to thicken.

    Pour into jars or freezer containers, leaving 1/2-in.
    headspace. Cool. Cover with lids; refrigerate or freeze.
    Yield: 3 cups filling for one pie.

    TO MAKE PIE: Set oven @ 375ºF/190ºC. On a lightly
    floured surface, roll one half of dough to a 1/8" thick
    circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to
    1/2" beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Add thawed
    filling. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is
    bubbly, 40-45 minutes. Cover edges during the last 20
    minutes to prevent overbrowning. Cool on a wire rack.

    Meanwhile, roll remaining dough to 1/8" thick circle;
    cut stars using floured star-shaped cutters. Place on an
    ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 7-11 minutes or until
    golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool.

    To serve, dust stars with confectioners' sugar; place
    over pie. Lightly dust edges of pie with confectioners'
    sugar.
