Piecaken

This is not my creation and I am going to search the web for a recipe, but this has to be one of the most sinful desserts known to humans:

The Piecaken: A blueberry pie and a
cherry pie baked into a vanilla cake with Buttercream frosting.

    Hmmm.....why? :-)

    Because it's trendy!

    Stoner food has morphed into hipster food. It's on the same lines as chocolate dipped Oreos baked into brownies. I kid you not.

    The basic cake shown could easily be made by a non-baker with a couple of Marie Callender Pies, cake mix and tub of frosting, though the actual quality of the pictured assemblage looks like it was done with skill.

    I agree, artemis, LOL.

    It doesn't really appeal to me, as I don't want my food all piled on top of each other, I had that same problem when it was fashionable to pile the vegetables on top of the mashed potatoes and top with all with the meat and a garnish, your whole meal in a big pile.

    Although I've often had a half of a piece of cake and a half of a piece of pie for dessert and was happy, so maybe it would be ok.....

    Sorry, but that does nothing for me, and if it was served at a meal I attended I suspect I'd find a reason to pass on dessert.

    No; I looks like someone got it out of the dustbin.

    I am just fine with sinful desserts but I don't crave this one. Texture is important to me and I am thinking the pie crusts would lose crispness.

    But maybe it is fabulous. Are you going to make it?

    LOL!! I didn't know we were supposed to want to eat it!

    We have "Piecaken" already! Shoofly Pie is a Pennsylvania Dutch staple. It's really a molasses cake baked in a pie shell.

    My DH grew up in British boarding schools, so he mushes everything together on the back of his fork anyway, so it would save steps! Nancy

    Thanks, but I'll pass. I'm not a fan of pot pie either.

    The photo of the sliced cake kinda' reminds me of layers of stuff in the compost bucket.

    LOL! Still looks like stoner food to me....
