PIE!

*Licks chops* I finally got myself to bake a pie today. Chocolate cream pie to be exact. It came out surprisingly better than expected. I guess it can somewhat count as my brother's birthday pie.

I baked during the afternoon, but the filling had to set, so I had to leave it in the fridge for about 4 hours. I won't put the recipe here since I've the feeling none of you would want to try baking it. :P I downsized it to half and made a 4.5 inch pie instead of the usual 8~9 inch ones, just in case I did anything wrong.

I kneaded the dough too much, so it sort of shrink when I started to bake it. Not too mention I didn't poke the enough holes in the pastry, so the middle puffed up. :/ Other than that, the crust came out okay.

The filling tasted like chocolate brownie batter that hadn't been baked yet. I accidentally (or was it an accident?) made too much, so I had to eat up the leftover chocolate, yum~ x3 After it was done setting, I added some whipped cream on the top and shared it with my family. There's still half a pie left, might have it for breakfast.
