The post Rolled Graham Cracker Crust appeared first on Cookie Madness. Original Author is Anna. Graham cracker crust is the perfect partner to cream pies, but it can be annoyingly crumbly and messy. This is certainly not always an issue because crumbly graham crackers crusts are sometimes the tastiest, but I do love it when they hold together well, which got me thinking about rolled graham cracker crusts. That is,... Read More The post Rolled Graham Cracker Crust appeared first on Cookie Madness ..read more

The post Baked All Butter Pie Crust appeared first on Cookie Madness. Original Author is Anna. I like shortening pie crust and butter pie crust for different reasons. Pies made with shortening (I use a mix of regular and butter flavored) seem to get the most compliments because people hone in on the super flaky texture. However, I personally love the flavor of butter crusts, which can be just as flaky... Read More The post Baked All Butter Pie Crust appeared first on Cookie Madness ..read more

I’ve had this baked pie crust recipe in my files for a while and hadn’t planned on posting it since I already have a really good all butter pie crust recipe. But earlier this week I found myself a little short on butter and needed a good crust for the Harry’s Roadhouse Coconut Cream Pie....

I normally make pie crusts with all-purpose flour, but I had a big bag of whole wheat pastry flour and thought it might be nice to try something different. This is the recipe I used, and it’s the recipe I’ll be using again! The wheat flavor doesn’t dominate, but goes nicely with fillings such as...

Frozen Fudge Brownie Pie is a variation of one I found in my mother’s old recipe clippings. At one point this was a very popular pie, probably because it is so easy. Plus it makes the perfect blank canvas for topping with different flavors of ice cream and whipped cream. Here is it without any...

Emma’s still on a pie making kick, and Pastry Torch S’mores Cream Pie is her latest creation. I helped come up with the name, which is not very creative but helpful in that it lets you know you need a pastry torch. Unlike some s’mores pies that get put under the broiler or in a...

I need to buy my daughter more cookbooks, because while I own probably 200, she has 3 — 5-Minute Mug Cakes, The Magic of Jello, and Sugar, Butter, Flour: The Waitress Pie Cookbook. I’m not sure she has a favorite, but being a musical theatre and Sara Bareilles fan, she loves the Waitress book. You...

Like most of 2020, cherry season was a little disappointing and I didn’t buy enough fresh cherries to freeze for a later date. Well, to be honest I rarely do that anyway. If cherries are fresh, we eat them right away. And if we want cherry pie out of season (which is often), we use...

I never thought I’d have a lemon tree, but it turns out the mysterious buds on a tree by our driveway are lemons — real, actual lemons that humans can eat. The incredulity is genuine, because I’m not a gardener and growing up in a hot and dry climate didn’t help things. So it’s catch-up...
