While the average sweet-toother may have started placing orders for the 1,800 calorie-per slice cake at The Flying Monkey, a pair of my food-loving co-workers and I set out on a mission ourselves: to create our OWN, that's right you read it right, our own pumpple cake.
After dividing the prep between the three of us (one par-baked the apple pie, one par-baked-or purchased-a pumpkin pie, and I whipped up some decadent butter cream) we gathered at Tonya's lovely house (and newly renovated kitchen) in Arlington to do the damn thing.
The end result: a delicious, indulgence that probably shouldn't be consumed more than once a year given its ability to put an average person into diabetic shock. Enjoy the play-by-play below:
That is an apple pie.
Covered by vanilla cake batter.
Now the pumpkin.
Engulfed in chocolate batter.
Baked in the oven for a lot longer than we expected.
Frosted with hand made buttercream frosting.
A little decoration.
The Bakers.
That is 1800 calories of goodness people!
