Dexter's Laboratory Pop Tarts

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and unsalted butter. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

3. 3

   Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

4. 4

   On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut the dough into rectangles, approximately 3x4 inches in size.

5. 5

   Place half of the rectangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam onto the center of each rectangle.

6. 6

   Cover each jam-topped rectangle with another rectangle of dough. Use a fork to press the edges together and seal the pop tarts. Poke a few holes on the top of each pop tart with a fork to allow steam to escape.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
