Last week I was all about pies. I had a potluck holiday lunch at work so I decided to bring a chocolate chip pecan pie. I used the Karo syrup pecan pie recipe, which can be found here. I altered the recipe slightly by adding a 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. I'm a big fan of short cuts so I love pre-made frozen pie crusts. All you have to do is prepare your filling ingredients, pour into the pre-made pie crust, bake and voilĂ you have a beautiful pie. Since the frozen pie crusts come in packages of two and I still had leftover karo syrup I decided to try another pie recipe from the karo syrup website. I made the brownie pecan pie for my cookie decorating and hot chocolate bar party. See, I told you I would discuss that pie in a future blog post! Both pies turned out great and received rave reviews.
I thought I would also share some pie recipes using keebler's graham cracker crusts, which are another great easy pie crust option.

Another way to incorporate pies when entertaining is to serve mini pies and create a "pie bar". Below I have included pictures of some examples. Trader Joe's sells a mini pie medley which is a great option if you want to have a "pie bar" at your next party.
