I spent a ton of time working on 2 desserts from her November 2011 issue: the 6-layer salted caramel chocolate cake, and this pie. Both sounded delicious in theory, neither really worked. And since I take baking pretty seriously this was not good. We had my in-laws staying with us Thanksgiving week, so hearing baking comments and questions from the MIL every time I brought out a new dessert fail essentially killed my festive spirit (pregnancy hormones didn’t help, either). Nobody needed to tell me they were both insane desserts, but who doesn’t want their houseguests to just lie to them?
