chocolate pocket pies

I got the idea for these from an alton brown show, and thought i'd try it out.

Basically, it's a slightly sweet biscuit dough, rolled out then in little 10" diameter circles. Then i put a a bit of chocolate filling (see below) on one side, folded it in half to form the pocket, and that's basically it. I crimped the sides with a fork, and poked a few slots for steam to get out in the top, then baked. Oh, i suppose i also sprinkled some sugar over it.

The filling could be any pie type filling. I creamed some butter with sugar and cocoa powder.

Pretty easy, and fun. Eat 'em hot.
