This works great. Also has a much better flavor than store bought and much cheaper too.

I baked up a rhubarb pie this afternoon with your Shake-a-Pie crust. The crust was soooo easy to make and really delicious. I certainly will be using your crust to make all my pies in the future. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Sensational pie crust! Just a few tips that I had to find out the hard way: 1. It is best to put the Crisco in by teaspoons or tablespoons (at one time) instead of just dumping in the cup in one blob so that it mixes easier. 2. When using the plastic bowl with lid, make sure it is a bowl - not a storage container with sides or the ingredients will get stuck in there. I guess I was not fully thinking when I did it the first time. Anyway this recipe is fun and a good way to get a little exercise before eating the pie! Kids love mixing it and it is truly flaky and delicious! I, too, was unsure but are convinced that this simple pie crust recipe is handled very little so it does yield a truly great crust. Thanks again.

This recipe was amazing! I am not a great pie crust maker so I am always searching for that perfect recipe. I had some doubts as it sounded bizarre, but it worked just as Deb said and it was great. rolled out perfectly and was the flakiest crust ever
