Happy Pi(e) day!!

So Pi day kind of snuck up on me. Somehow this week seems to have flown by a bit too quickly. I had intended to make lots of little pies for Chris to bring into work, but in the end settled on a simple caramel chocolate pie with a graham cracker crust. These are super easy to make and lots of fun! 

What you will need:

Graham cracker*

Butter

Mini pie tins

Rolos- 4 per pie

Milky Way bites- 1 or 2 per pie

About a cup crushed Pretzels

*you can also buy mini graham cracker crusts pre made at the store by Keebler (or someone else). 

Crust:

The amount if ingredients are dependent on how many pies you are making and the size of the pies, so this is just general advice. 

Melt about half a stick butter. 

While it is melting, crush 1 whole sleeve of graham crackers.

After butter is melted, mix in graham crackers until the graham cracker is coated in butter but not soaking.

Press into mini pie trays or into cupcake tins. 

Candy pies:

Preheat the oven to 350. 

Put about 4 rolos per pie (that's what fits in the mini pie trays that I used, but you wanna fill the pie tray you use). 

Place Milky Way bite into the center of the rolos. 

Put in oven for about 3 minutes. 

While they are cooking crush pretzels in zip lock bag. 

After 3 minutes remove from oven. 

I used a spoon to crush the candies before sprinkling the pretzels on top. 

The decorations:

I used scrap book paper to cut out the pie symbol. 

I used tape to attach them to toothpicks. 

Make one for each pie.
