  1. They let one of the pop tarts escape. How shameful.

  2. They are MORE TART than I expected. As in, the filling has more tartness than when it went into the oven. I'm very surprised by that.

    What this means is that I went back and put on another layer of icing because not only was my (relatively thin) initial layer not excessive, if anything, it was a little _shy_ of what you want.

    Something to keep in mind. Get more tartness out of the filling than you expect.

    Maybe the crust rising eats some of the sugar.

    Anyway, it's good, you can do it, and we're done in time for #monsterdon ^_^

  3. And all four. The icing is forming up decently well.

    Maybe could've been a little less milk still. But it was hard to whisk and looked right, so I was in the neighbourhood.

  4. REGARDLESS

    It's hard to describe and it doesn't photograph well, but particularly when you're stirring it, the icing should look like mother of pearl. That's where it really felt right, anyway.

  5. Thought I posted this one - pressed down lightly and allowed to cool.

  6. Don't want these to burst, so let's take the out now and let them cool.

  7. The icing is just powdered sugar whisked together with MUCH LESS MILK THAN YOU EXPECT. Much, much less. You want it stiff and silky.

  8. AND into the oven. 400°F. Now, time for the icing. Or frosting. The kind that's sugar based, not cream based.

  9. Transferred to parchment paper and into the oven!

    Baking for 10 minutes before checking again. How long is mostly a matter of what kind of crust you're using; check that recipe, whatever it is.

    It's like handling giant floppy ravioli at this point. Kinda difficult, wants to slop around.

  10. and top crusts, with edges fluted to unify the upper and lower halves

  11. okay these next parts went quick so

    beaten egg, line edges of lower crusts - this is basically an adhesive between the upper and lower crusts

  12. okay, i’ve got my two crusts atop each other for cutting, as per original

  13. You want a simmer for reduction, akin to this. Keep an eye on it, don’t let it go into full boil.

  14. @sashin In the oven, not the toaster.

    Though if you time it right in the oven, then you totally could.

  15. The part you really _bake_ is the crust, so you want to cook all _this_ on the stove. This is a pretty fast prep, but don't rush it. It needs to be properly reduced, as well as properly cooked.

    Basically "yes, on low."

    (or maybe medium low. depends upon your burners)

  16. this is the cut up strawberries, the lemon juice (a bit over half a cup) and a guess at the amount of sugar (I may add more later). You want to lose the sharp tartness while keeping some (to taste)

  17. I saw Rapping Chef do this on tumblr, so I'm guessing at allllll the measurements xD

  24. 'Since cereal had a longer shelf life, it was preferable as a breakfast option to pastries, which expired quickly. This left a gap in the market for a ready-to-go breakfast pastry with a longer shelf life.' news.northeastern.edu/2024/05/ #foodhistory #PopTarts #breakfastfoods #US

  25. #ElmoMush turned #Twitter 🐦 into #Xitter 🚽.

    So, to people who still tweet, we know where your mind is. 🤔

    For instance, #MAGA minion #StephenMiller just fired off a bunch of tweets blaming #woke #Kelloggs for #grooming children to be gay with #PopTarts. 👉 dailykos.com/stories/2023/8/11

    Do NOT play Whack-a-mole with a #MAGAmoron. Just #WalkAway. #CancelCulture will #SaveAmerica from MAGA madness. ✅
