Cake Batter Cream Pie

There's some things that I think I'll never stop loving.

Disney movies. The little kid ones. Because seriously, how can you not love Lion King? Or Mulan? Or Up? Or the Emperor's New Groove? Or almost all of them?

Water Balloons. There is seriously so much fun involved with this.

Crayola Crayons

Twix Candy Bars at Halloween.

Singing in the shower . . . but only me doing it. I don't really care about listening to my brother belt out the old spice commercial in the shower.

Doodles. You seriously need to see my math notebook.

And cake batter. Cake batter is like my favorite . . . everything. I don't just think I'll never stop liking cake batter, I know it.

For my dad's birthday, we always have french silk pie rather than cake, because he likes it better. I decided to combine both, in a cake batter cream pie!

This is super easy, and was SO good! This would be a hit at any holiday event, it was with my family!

 By the way, did you know how hard it is to scoop out a slice of cream pie without it looking like this?

It's really complicated just so you know. 

This dessert may have been hard to photograph, but it definitely wasn't hard to eat!

I don't make pies very often . . . because they just seem so hard! This one was SO easy, I'm for sure making it again.
