Over this put another layer of pie dough to cover the entire mixture, seal the edges and discard any left over dough. 4. Bake at 400 degrees until nicely browned. Remove from oven. 5. While this is baking- mix powdered sugar, butter and enough water to stir and blend (don't make it too thin). Pour over the still hot cookie mixture, when it comes out of the oven.
