Most people who like banana cream pie like coconut cream pie and vice versa. They will never argue against putting the two together. Why not just do it that way all the time? For this version I decided that I would meld the two by making the pie c...

Coconut Cream Hershey’s Kisses, brownie mix, and pie crust make up these delicious treats! Coconut Kiss Brownie Pies are a fast and yummy dessert, perfect for Easter! I am in love with the song “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (featuring Wanz). Have you heard it? It’s a rap song, but it has...

St. Patrick’s Day in a non-alcoholic bite! Baileys Irish Cream Creamer Cheesecake Pie uses Baileys Irish Cream Coffee Creamer to infuse cheesecake and ganache, all on top of a chocolate cookie crust. A delicious, minty pie that everyone can enjoy! I am a firm believer that every girl needs several pairs of shoes. Purses...

Last week I went to the post office. Now, normally that shouldn’t be some sort of declaration, like “last week I had a root canal”, but really, it is. Because, in my city, going to the post office really inspires root canal and doctor visit dread. Usually, I avoid the post office at all...

Yes, I know. “Skinny” and “Pie” don’t always belong in the same sentence. But I put it there anyway! Wednesday, January 23, is National Pie Day. {Not to be confused with Pi Day, which is my favorite day of the year!} I mean, I’m Crazy for Crust. I kind of had to post a...

Bacon lovers unite!  It's the 2nd Annual Bacon Fest Sacramento!!  In honor of such a momentous happening, I pulled out all the BIWB stops and created a pecan pie fit for a true bacon lover.  Honey caramel shellacked bacon surrounded by c...

It’s almost New Year’s Eve! Kind of crazy, right? That it’s going to be 2013? I swear 2012 JUST started. And now it’s over. Blog-wise, 2012 was an amazing year for me. I feel like Crazy for Crust grew up a little. I still have a long way to go, and so many things...
