Ingredients

1: box Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

1: can (13.4 oz) dulce de leche

2/3: cup milk chocolate chips (4 oz)

Expert Tips

Substitute semisweet chocolate chips for the milk chocolate ones to cut back on the sweetness.

These mini pies would go perfectly on any dessert buffet table. Make the day of the party easier by baking the pie shells a day ahead of time and storing them in an airtight container.
