Homemade Pie Crust

I have a new mission in life, make as much as I can from scratch and teach my daughter how to cook the same way. I know so many things are so easy to run to the store and buy, but why when I can make it and I know exactly what is in it.

Today I made pie crust dough from scratch, I have done it before but forgotten how.

We are going to the Tobacco Festival on Saturday and I need to take a dessert so I wanted to make mini pop-able pie for people to enjoy. Today, I used the recipe I found on Martha Stewart's website to make my crust. It was so simple. I used my Kitchen Aide Mixer instead of a food Processor.

I cut my dough for the mini pie crust using a biscuit cutter and placed them in mini muffin cups. I baked them on 350 for about 5 mins. Tomorrow I am going to fill them with fudge pie filling. I am super excited about this and can't wait to taste test.
