My Own Honeydukes Part II

Onwards to the filling!


This hot mess that you see before you is 1 cup of corn syrup (with a hint of vanilla flavoring apparently...) 


and bread crumbs (2 and 1/4 cups, supposed to be fresh)


This combo gave us this delicious looking animal feed you see above. 

There was also supposed to be rated zest and juice of 1 lemon but we couldn't be bothered to buy 1 lemon for a recipe being made by frugal (read: poor) college students working on a pre-agreed amount for the summer. 



Anyway, we rolled out the dough to make the bottom crust.

Previously we had rolled it out into 9 doughy discs (was going for 8 but I miscounted) because we interpreted the recipe differently. 

We assumed that a tart that served 8 people was 8 cupcake sized tarts for 8 people. It turns out it means one whole tart in a pie pan basically. So go us for not exactly following the recipe.

Lookin' Fab!


Anyway with our corn syrup and bread crumb mash we decided that half a bag of chocolate chips would be the most appreciated addition to this recipe. 


We also (quite literally) threw in some more confectioner's sugar.


Applied lattice work pie crust with the other half of the dough.


Then made mini pies of peanut butter and chocolate chips with the leftover dough. 

Jesus christ our kitchen was a madness after we finished up the tart.


But ... IT WAS AWESOME


We ate almost half of it once it came out.


Then almost annihilated it the next day with more friends
