My famously delicious birthday cake is that big purple round thing with the gaudy "20" on it… what can I say, I’m a kid at heart! The purple was my choice too… I joked that I used Barney guts for the frosting (note: no giant purple dinosaurs were harmed in the making of this cake!).

Crack Pie

…alternately, “I see a diabetic coma in your near future.”

Last of the Thanksgiving desserts I baked (or, at least the last one I’ll be posting–I also made a batch of these per my wife’s request). This is a recipe I’ve heard so much about I just had to try: the “Crack Pie” from Momofuku Milk Bar. I bought myself the cookbook, but the recipe is easily found online.

This is a variation on a chess pie, a family of pies that includes pecan pie, and a tooth-achingly sweet one at that. It uses a crust of oatmeal cookie crumbs, sugar, and butter, with a filling made of sugar, cream, egg yolk, and butter. It was tasty, gooey, and very, very rich, but being that I prefer less-sweet versions of pecan pie, this wasn’t exactly my, er, sweet spot. (Not that I’d turn away a slice.)

It’s not exactly the most photogenic thing, especially before it’s been cut. I took the remaining portion and shot it, backlit by a window, and with a white bounce card to keep the foreground from being overcome by shadow.
