    What recipe did you use? How'd you make that shape for pi?

  7. pauladamsmith (51 months ago | reply)

    @Mugwump101: Just a generic pumpkin pie recipe. For the pi, I printed a large pi symbol I found on the internets on my printer, and traced the outline into some extra dough I had rolled flat after making the main crust. Then I cut away the extra with a sharp knife. The key was to bake it separately and then place it on the pie toward the end, otherwise it would overcook.
