Cookie Pi Crust

As I was growing up, when my Mom would make pie, she would always take the left over scraps from the crust and made what she called “Cookie Crust”.  That was almost better than the pies.  I carried on the same tradition with my own children.  Although none of them bake, let alone bake pie with homemade crust, they sure enjoy it when they come home and I pull a “Cookie Crust” out of the oven.  Today, in honor of “Pi Day” I have made “Cookie Pi Crust”, and this is how simple it is.

Step 1:

Supplies:
Raw pie crust dough (your favorite recipe)
Butter (room temperature)
Cinnamon sugar
Cookie sheet
Spatula
Rolling Pin
Paring knife
Extra flour
Paper Pi pattern, in the size you want

Very cool!!! I'm a math teacher and I'm going to try this one out. But don't you think they should call it "approximation to pi day"?
