yesterday, leaving me with three sides and one dessert to prep today. That's what I'm in the middle of right now. I baked pecan pie bars earlier this morning, I just pulled a sweet potato casserole out of the oven and I have potatoes coming to a boil as I type. I do not like sweet potatoes. Everybody goes on about sweet potato fries and to me, it's still a sweet potato and I don't like them. I eat sweet potatoes one way. Sweet potato casserole... and especially hold the marshmallows...YUCK. My sweet potatoes have to be topped with a crumbly streusel mix. So this morning I was mixing the topping. It looked different than normal. It was really wet, really, really wet. I double checked the recipe. Instead of adding 3/4 of a STICK of butter, I added 3/4 of a CUP of butter. (That's 1 1/2 sticks versus 3/4 of a stick... double.)
See the difference? The bowl on the right is correct.
I hurried and mixed the proper topping to get it in the oven. Then I started thinking. What would happen if I put my mistake on a sheet and baked it. I did. Can we say "happy accident"?
I had a few bites.
