Boston Cream Pie

It seemed like a sweet idea to commemorate the day of my entry into this world... and I was hoping not to do the commemoration myself.

Thanks to Cook's Illustrated, Papa and daughter pooled their skills to create the Wicked Good Boston Cream Pie as a birthday surprise!

I am a big fan of America's Test Kitchen and it is no secret that their recipes inspire and educate me, as I've shared here before.

So, there you have it, not an original recipe, not a dessert that I baked, but a fantastic one nonetheless and easy to make from scratch thanks to Cook's Illustrated. And pretty decadent.
