Pi Week - Proc'ing Orange Creamsicle Pie




3.14159265358979323846 Week continues!  Our second pie to honor Pi week is something a little sweet.  It's light, fluffy and if you're a fan of Orange Creamsicles... you're probably going to be a big fan of this one.  Be aware though, this recipe makes TWO pies!  Just buy 2 premade pie crusts and you're good to go.  Think of it as crafting something and it proc'ing & giving you 2 for you gamers out there.  Make one for raid night dessert & save the other to take to Work, School, a Family Gathering or your significant other.  Multitasking my friends...  You get a yummy pie AND you show off your mad cooking skills... Like a Boss!
