We will make both the crust and a basic cream filling during class and then will learn how to build upon the cream base to create many different pie flavor options such as banana cream, chocolate cream, coconut and more. At the end of class you will have one (1) - 9 inch cream pie to take home - and a couple of mini 4" pies too!
