Sugary pie crust from BCatherine:
hate rolling dough (even cookie dough) so I never make my own pie crusts (I buy the pillsbury ones that have two in each pkg. and you just roll them out into the pie plate and over the filling). But, if you are making other kinds of pie (key lime, lemon, cheesecake, that kind of stuff) I make my pie crusts with the Lorna Doon shortbread cookies and it's so good. I've never liked graham cracker crusts (I know I'm weird) so I started making them with these cookies and it's really good.
I guess I'm no help for a cherry pie crust but might come in handy when making other pies.
