In a small bowl, whisk the cream cheese and pie filling together until smooth. Then stir in the vanilla and sugar.
Take your rolled out pie crust and cut out 6-inch circles. We use a coffee can or Crisco lid. You can make any size you prefer.
Fill the center of each pie round with about 2 -3 tablespoons of the filling mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cool water. Lightly brush the outer edges of the dough circle. The egg wash will help seal the edges. Fold the circle over in half to meet the edge and crimp well with fingers or a fork.
Place on a greased baking sheet at 350 degreed F for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
To Deep Fry: Heat fry oil to 350 - 360 degrees F and fry for about 3- 5 minutes, rotating, until golden brown. Place on a paper towel or rack to cool slightly. Top with powdered sugar, if desired.
