This Eggnog Custard Pie Is Decorated Prettier Than All The Presents Sitting Under Your Tree
- 5 years ago
We asked one of Instagram's leading pie experts, Cristina Manjon a.k.a @fortyninefigs, to come to the Delish kitchens and whip up a pie that'd knock the socks off of everyone here. And she DELIVERED.
Underneath all that gorgeous, hand-cut dough, there's an eggnog custard pie that sets nice, bright, and ready to be decorated. Cristina cut out what seamed like 7,000 shapes (square presents, holly leaves, a Christmas tree, garlands), then pieced them together perfectly atop the pie. Each of those holly berries on the leaves? Yah, she placed them one by one with tweezers onto the pie.
If you've got patience, a keen eye, and perfectionism coursing through your veins, you could attempt to recreate Cristina's masterpiece at home. Otherwise, spend these last days leading up to Christmas lamenting the fact that you can't decorate a pie nearly as well as her or ogling the other designs she's posted on Instagram. Honestly, the two are one in the same.
