Ro: Hey guys, it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies
Ro: Today I have a special guest, CaptainSparklez!
CS: Hi there!
Ro: He has an awesome gaming channel, I’ll put a link down below so you can go
Ro: check it out, and I thought Jordan would be the perfect guest today because you
Ro: play a lot of Minecraft. CS: That I do.
Ro: And today, we are gonna be making a Minecraft Pumpkin Pie!
Both: Let’s get started!
Ro: The things you will need, will be: 1 can of pure pumpkin, 1 can of evaporated
Ro: milk, 2 eggs, 1/2 a teaspoon of salt, 1/2 a teaspoon of ginger, 1 teaspoon of
Ro: cinnamon, and, I’ve got some instant pillsbury pie crusts but if you’d like
Ro: to make some from scratch, feel free! You will also need…
CS: 3/4 cup of sugar, a pie plate, a big mixing bowl, a hand mixer and a big knife!
Ro: Yep, let’s put it all together!
CS: Ye-ah!
CS: So, what do we do first?
Ro: 1st thing that we’re gonna do is make our pumpkin pie filling, so I’m gonna
Ro: have you open up our pure pumpkin, here we go. CS: Oh boy…
Ro: I’m gonna put you to work, here I’ll get this out of the way. CS: Do I, do I?
CS: Does this come with an instruction manual or anything?
Ro: Um, I think you, I know you open it and you kind of, like, connect the 2,
Ro: sharp sides… CS: So dis… disclaimer for everyone, I haven’t cooked anything
CS: in like 15 years… That’s the way. Ro: You hold it and, and, and I… I’ll twist it.
Ro: Oh this way. CS: Oh, OK, oh! Here we go! Wait, no it’s not clamped anymore! Ro: Oh what did I do?
Ro: Jordan, welcome to my show, I’m such a pro!
CS: There we go. Ro: Oh, OH pfft! CS: Almost!
Ro: Um, can you get the lid out of there?
CS: I broke it! Ro: Oh you did it! CS: I know, but I broke the spatula!
Ro: It’s OK, we’ve got plenty of spatulas in this house. CS: OK.
Ro: Can you fling it off? Just fling it! Just go for it!
CS: It’s kind of, it’s still, like, sort of attached, so…
CS: It’s gonna be like a ninja star!
Ro: Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!
CS: That was easy… Ro: Mmmhmm, and just… CS: Let’s scoop it into here.
Ro: Now you’re gonna mix in your sugar, Jordan grab the sugar. CS: OK.
Ro: And I’m gonna toss in the cinnamon, just pour it all in.
CS: I don’t get to like… Eat this?
Ro: Ah, no, no! We need it in the pie! We need it in the pie!
Ro: Now we’re gonna add the ginger and the salt. Cheers, ding!
Ro: Have you ever done a 1 handed egg crack? CS: … Maybe?
Ro: OK, we’re gonna attempt it. CS: OK. Ro: And it’s just crack, twist,
Ro: kinda with your hand, and if it, if it’s not perfect, that’s fine, doesn’t matter,
Ro: we’re learning. CS: OK. Ro: OK, you ready? CS: I mean, I’ll try…
Ro: So you go crack, twist! CS: Oh boy. Ro: And then just throw your shells in
Ro: here, I’ll be ready. CS: That was intimidating, ah… Ro: You got it, you got it!
Ro: I spilled look over here. CS: Ta-ha-ha-ha! Ro: Nice, nice get it in there, great!
CS: Oh here we go! Did I do it?
Ro: Yeah, it was pretty good. CS: OK. Ro: Now we’re gonna go wash our hands!
CS: Alright, so now that we’ve opened up our cans in a really, really professional
CS: fashion, and added everything into here, we wanna mix it!
Ro: Yep, alright so grab the hand mixer, and we’re gonna mix everything together on
Ro: a low speed, if you put it on a high speed it will fly everywhere,
Ro: so I’m gonna show you. CS: So, put it on like, 5, right? Ro: Yeah, no…
Ro: Don’t put it on 5, just put it on 1. CS: OK. Ro: There you go.
CS: OK. Ro: And just mix together until it’s well combined. CS: Oh that’s fancy!
Ro: Take about a minute.
CS: Now we get to open another can again. Ro: Mmmhmm.
CS: Which is good because we’re professionals and the last one, like, it went
CS: really smoothly. Ro: Went really well!
CS: Here we go, this is liquid, so higher stakes…
CS: Alright, and spin it around.
Ro: So Jordan’s gonna slowly pour in the milk and I’m gonna mix
Ro: until it’s all mixed together.
CS: Alright. Ro: OK, so you start slowly pouring.
Ro: Ready? And I’ll mix it in there.
CS: OK, so now we’re gonna set this off to the side and
CS: we’ll go and get our pie crust ready. Ro: Om-nom-nom-nom-nom!
Ro: We do have 2 pie crusts, but we’re just gonna be using 1 at first.
Ro: So I’m gonna have you open it up with the scissors, just cut an end. CS: Alright.
Ro: You can do it! CS: Hopefully, hopefully I’ll be, uh, just as good at this
CS: as I am with cans.
Ro: Now we’re just gonna unroll it and lay it in the center of the pan.
Ro: Just be a little gentle. CS: OK. Ro: And then really gently unroll, are you ready?
CS: I’m ready. Ro: Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo! CS: Oh boy!
Ro: Press down in the corners with your hand. CS: OK, so we want to, like, fit it
CS: perfectly to the… Ro: Yeah. CS: To the bowl.
Ro: Now you’re just gonna slowly pour your pie mixture into your pan.
Ro: So just… You can do it! I’m gonna… Are you ready? CS: You look so nervous!
Ro: You can do it, you can do it! CS: Alright, there we… there we go!
Ro: Nice! that is a steady pour, that is a great pour! CS: Thank you.
CS: Alright, so now you’re gonna heat your oven to 425 degrees and
CS: bake it for 15 minutes . Ro: And then you’re gonna reduce the heat to 350 and
Ro: bake the pie for an additional 40 minutes, it is a double bake process.
CS: And that’s… Because science. Ro: Because of science! CS: Yeah. Ro: And… Magic!
Ro: Now the pie is in the oven, we are gonna decorate and make a
Ro: pixelated pie crust decoration. So we’re gonna have to open 1 of these again.
CS: Oh boy! My specialty! Ro: I’m gonna hand it over, hee-hee!
CS: I like how I just open all the things. Ro: Hahaha yup!
Ro: Now you’re just gonna roll it out on top of this.
Ro: I just got a baking sheet with 1 piece of parchment paper, so that it won’t stick.
Ro: I cut out an 8 inch circle, and we’re just gonna use that as a template.
Ro: So we’re gonna stick it right on top of the dough, and you’re gonna take a
Ro: sharp cutting knife. CS: Oh my goodness! Ro: You can do it, alright,
Ro: now I’m just gonna hold it here, and don’t cut off my fingers!
CS: I’m gonna try not to! Ro: And then you’re just gonna cut all the way around.
CS: Ohhhh boy! Ro: Nice, uh-oh we got… There we go. CS: I’m back on track, I think.
Ro: Doin’ great! Ohhhhh! CS: Oh, there we go! I think I did it! Ro: Made it! OK.
CS: I hope so.
Ro: OK, now you’re just gonna take off the excess dough.
CS: Beautiful! Ro: Look how pretty! CS: I did it! Ro: You did it, very good!
Ro: And then, what I did is I cut out little 1 inch square design.
Ro: And you can make it look like whatever you like, but I will put a template of this
Ro: down in the links, down below.
Ro: I will scan it, so if you guys want to use these you can.
Ro: And then, ready for this? Trace the outline of the shape, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo!
CS: See you have a way better method of doing it with the…
Ro: Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo! CS: Yeah. Ro: The jiggle? CS: Yeah!
Ro: Kinda… CS: The jiggle method.
Ro: And, you’re gonna very carefully take out the middle,
Ro: because we want the outer… Shape. CS: OK.
Ro: Take a little toothpick. CS: OK. Ro: And we’re just gonna gently fling up the middle.
CS: OK, so it doesn’t matter if we mess up the inside part? Ro: Yeah.
CS: OK, so now we’re gonna cut out 1 inch squares from our leftover pie crust.
Ro: Mmmhmm. CS: So I guess I’m gonna place it down and cut right around it.
Ro: Yeah, just trace it out. And you can make as many of these as you’d like,
Ro: I’m just gonna put a few on the top.
Ro: We just took the pie out, it’s really hot, there’s 10 minutes left to bake.
Ro: But we’re gonna take this dough, and it’s OK if it breaks in half,
Ro: and you might actually just want to cut it, right here, that’s fine!
CS: And now I do this with my big mitts? No? OK. Ro: Yeah!
Ro: Bloop! Bloop!
Ro: Now you’re gonna pop this back in the oven for 10 minutes, and let it bake
Ro: until this top crust is golden brown.
Both: Ta-da!
Ro: Here is our Pixelated Pumpkin Pie from Minecraft!
Ro: I hope you guys liked it and I hope you like the recipe!
Ro: And a big thank you to CaptainSparklez for helping me bake today!
CS: Thanks for having me, I think it turned out pretty well!
Ro: Mmmhmm! And I will be putting all of his links down below so go check him out.
Ro: And, Jordan has a new game coming out.
CS: Yeah, it’s called Fortress Fallout, it’s a 1 on 1 competitive strategy game
CS: on iOS and Android, so if you’re interested I think that’s linked below as well.
Ro: Yep, I’ll put it down there so you can go check it out.
Ro: And, if you guys bake this pumpkin pie, please send us pictures,
Ro: I love seeing your baking creations. You can send them to me on Twitter, Facebook,
Ro: Tumblr, Instagram, and you can tweet ‘em to the both of us, because we want
Ro: to see these things!
CS: And also, like, show, show you opening the can!
Ro: Mmmhmm! CS: Because that’s an important part of the process!
Ro: I think that’s the best part of this process!
Ro: Alright, thanks again you guys, if you have any other ideas for any other
Ro: Nerdy Nummies, please leave me a comment down below and let me know what you
Ro: would like to see me bake next!
Ro: Alright, thanks again, bye-bye! CS: See ya!
CS: Alright Ro, so that was a pretty good Pumpkin Pie recipe. Ro: Oh thank you!
CS: Tasted, tasted pretty nice, but uh, I’ve actually got an alternative for you.
CS: We can make a pumpkin pie using the, uh, traditional Minecraft method.
Ro: Oooh I’m excited, OK what do you do?
CS: So, yeah, you’ll just need an egg, bowl of sugar, and just a full on pumpkin.
CS: And I brought along my own crafting table.
Ro: That’s this? OK.
CS: So we can, yeah, just toss them on in here, and…
Ro: OH! CS: And there we go! Pumpkin Pie!
Ro: Oh my gosh! This is so cool! This was so much easier. CS: Yeah.
Ro: We should have just done it the Minecraft way!
