2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
4-6 tbsp ice water
1/2 cup strawberry jam (or any flavor you prefer)
1 egg, for egg wash
For the icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Sprinkles for decoration (optional)
Directions:
Dough Prep: In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, stirring until dough forms. Divide into two, wrap, and chill for 1 hour.
Assembly: Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into rectangles. Place a spoonful of jam on half the rectangles, leaving a border. Cover with another dough piece, seal edges with a fork. Brush with egg wash.
Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake on a lined baking sheet for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Glaze: Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the icing. Drizzle over cooled Pop-Tarts and top with sprinkles if desired.
