Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a large bowl using a wooden spoon mix together the flour, salt, 1 ½ teaspoon sugar, and baking powder.
  • Stir in the ⅔ cup melted butter and water.
  • Stir together until everything is combined.
  • Stir in 1 tablespoon of holiday jimmies sprinkles.
  • It will still be crumbly.
  • Pat the dough across the bottom of the pie pan and up the sides.
  • Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes until the crust turns just lightly golden.

  • Meanwhile, make your filling.
  • In a saucepan add 1 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and ¼ cup of cornstarch.
  • Turn the heat to medium and whisk in the milk.
  • Continue whisking and stirring until the mixture comes up to a boil.
  • Let the mixture boil for 2 minutes while still stirring.
  • Remove from the heat and whisk in your vanilla and cubed butter.
  • Set aside to cool slightly.
