Brown Butter Coffee Cake
"I think you really wanted to do something really elaborate, but ambition got the better of you here. The cake is lopsided and literally falling apart."
"So what is in between the layers, please?"
Anna: "It's salted caramel frosting, and the layers are drizzled with vanilla syrup."
"It's incredibly dense. So much frosting."
"Oh, that's a lot of frosting."
"And the sponge cake is wrong. It's coarse. The filling is off balance, too dense. The frosting is inedibly sweet. Like, every component is flawed."
"Yeah. I mean, you have a third of an inch of frosting twice. It is just a hit of sweetness that is taking over my palate, sadly. Anna, I'm sorry."
"Yeah, instantly, within that first mouthful, it is incredibly sweet. I love the salty caramel, but it's almost sickly sweet in a way that I cannot take a second bite of. Thank you, Anna."
