Ingredients
1refrigerated sheet of pastry puff dough
1Dollar Tree wooden pumpkin
1knife
1can of apple pie filling
1cookie sheet
1fork
green icing (with an extra small piping tip)
Instructions
Start by unrolling your dough out flat. Place your pumpkin close to the edge and trace around it with a knife. (If you have a large cookie cutter you can use that as well, but I like to use what I already have). Make TWO cut-outs.
1 refrigerated sheet of pastry puff dough, 1 Dollar Tree wooden pumpkin, 1 knife
Place your two large cut-outs on a cookie sheet. Cut a Jack-o-Lantern face out on one of the cut-outs, just as you would when carving a pumpkin.
1 cookie sheet
On the opposite one, place a heaping spoonful of apple pie filling in the middle. Place your Jack-o-Lantern face directly on top and line up your edges. Seal the edge by pressing it down with a fork, as shown.
1 can of apple pie filling, 1 fork
Bake in the oven at 425 degrees for 8 minutes.
Once cool, make some vines and leaves at the top of your Jack-o-Lantern with your green icing.

Serve and enjoy! Maybe with a scoop of vanilla ice cream?
