Bake this Buoyant Meringue in your Charlotte Mold

I like how Martha Stewart refers to the desserts in this month’s issue as Dreamy.

I’m sure she means that they are delicate and heavenly, but I interpret this as:

Ile flottante with pistachio crème anglaise and a spun sugar crown? In your dreams, sucker.

looks more like a nightmare to me than a dream. but then Martha must know best. stil...

I bet the spun sugar crown pokes into your gums and inner cheeks when you eat it.

oh how i love martha...
i have always wanted to try this
BUT alas
I have not enough time to find
a blowtorch..melt down the sugar...then let it harden again
into the lovely shape of a birds nest

it does look mighty dreamy though...if i could only dream about being able to make that

ha ha ha

I tried to make one of her cakes once and I believe she had said something to the effect of so easy a child could do it. MY ASS! I almost killed myself trying to make this cake for a Christmas party. Stupid Martha Stewart.
