  • This decadent Boston cream pie is a classic American Cake, not pie, made with tender vanilla sponge cake filled with silky vanilla pastry cream all topped by a glossy chocolate ganache.
    RECIPE: preppykitchen.com/boston-crea...
    This classic cake combines three simple components to make one fabulous dessert; moist delicate vanilla cake filled with silky vanilla pastry cream and topped by a decadent chocolate ganache. If you’re confused as to why this “pie” looks like a cake, you’re not alone, but I explain it in the video!

  • @vickynollam8831

    This is an amazing Boston Cream Pie. However, please be aware, that if you choose to prepare the pastry cream as the video suggests, by putting it in a pan the size of the cake and flipping it onto the case slice, it WILL separate when the pie is served, as it does not stick to the cake pieces. This was my only disappointment with the recipe. The original method of spreading the pastry cream onto one of the cake slices probably allow the cake to absorb some of the moisture, thereby sticking in place when the cake is set. Otherwise, this cake was perfect! Please note the written recipe does not indicate WHEN to put in the vanilla extract into the Pastry Cream. Correct your printed copy so it says to add it to the pastry cream when cooking it on the stove. No one else has mentioned this problem, so if anyone has any idea why it didn't work for me, please advise. Thanks.

    I made this cake yesterday and while it was great, by using the method with the custard the finished cake became 3 separate items never melding to each other.If you whipped the custard and spread it between the layers of cake it would have glued the top and bottom layers of cake keeping them together as you ate it.I will definitely make this again.
