I'm baking a chocolate tart.

This is probably a bad plan.

The cheater's puff I made is not exactly... up to spec. This happens sometime. I get moved to _experiment_ before I know what I'm doing. The results are unorthodox.

I _did_ try to dock the dough. it still puffed up weirdly in the middle, so I clearly didn't dock it enough.

I had to use extra water and triple sec to bring the crust together, because I used cocoa powder in my cheater's puff. Paul Hollywood would not approve. Mary Berry would add more double cream. The tart filling has no cream, just eggs, chocolate, and TOFFEE that I made while I was HIGH.

STONED. TOFFEE.

That was totally a bad plan. But it __worked__. And it tasted pretty good, even if the dough still rose too much in the middle because I patched a hole too aggressively.
