Chicken and corn mini pies are the ultimate comfort food. They're made from biscuits stuffed full of corn, chicken, onions, cheddar, and cream cheese. So good!
My mom died seven years ago this summer, but when she was alive, there were certain recipes I could count on her making all the time. Popover pizza (coming soon), pork and sauerkraut, and these chicken and corn mini pies were among her favorites.
My family eats chicken and corn mini pies all year round, but they taste especially good in the winter, when the chill of a blustery wind permeates everything.
I love these mini pies because the filling is savory with a hint of sweetness and the biscuits you use to make the pie part are buttery and flaky. I love these so much that I think I'm going to make some tomorrow. My kids will be delighted.
How to Make Chicken & Corn Mini Pies
- Preheat the oven to 375º.
- Lightly grease 8 muffin cups. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and mayonnaise; blend until smooth.
Stir in chicken, cheese, onion, and corn. - Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Separate each biscuit into 2 parts by removing the top ⅓ of the biscuit. Place bottom ⅔ of each biscuit in greased muffin cup; firmly press in bottom and up sides, forming ¼ inch rim. Spoon about ⅓ cup corn mixture into each cup. Top each with remaining ⅓ biscuit, stretching slightly to fit. Press edges to seal.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until tops are golden brown.

Those sound really good 🙂 Does the dough cook all the way through?

The American Homemaker - It does cook the whole way through. It is a little jiggly when you take it out of the oven, but by the time it rests, it has solidified. The internal temperature of the cake is supposed to reach 140 degrees. Mine actually cooked to 170 and taste great.
