It doesn't take much to appease a sugar fix. Consider the amount of quick and portable options that exist: supermarket checkout aisles are stocked with candy bars, cupcake stores have sprung up seemingly everywhere, and packages of cookies come in all sizes from single-serve all the way up to industrial strength. But, sometimes the craving for sugar needs something more than just a simple prepackaged good that can be found anywhere; sometimes, that sugar needs to be served warm.

Freshly baked pies offer a comfort without compare. The process of making a whole pie to achieve that comfort can sometimes turn into a study of diminishing returns. The Emeril Pie And Cake Maker by T-Fal keeps it easy by offering the ability to cook four individual mini pies (or cupcakes) in about 10 minutes.

More than just a pie-maker, the countertop appliance also makes it easy to create savory treats without heating up the big oven. Pastry cutters are included and can be used to prepare both bottom and top crusts. After placing the pastry in the gadget, all that is needed to do is scoop in any desired filling. When it is all said and done, the nonstick cooking plates facilitate an easy cleanup--making the complete experience rival anything a package of cookies can provide.
