If you thought Maryland was known only for its crab cake you
clearly haven’t stumbled onto the Berger cookie yet. I’d been in Baltimore about a year before I
made this diet busting yummy discovery, and I still can’t believe it took me
that long to try it.
Simple in its design, unexpected in its deliciousness, the
Berger cookie has been a Baltimore favorite for over a hundred years. The
vanilla wafer dipped in rich chocolate fudge seemed perfect enough. How could
anyone improve on this?
Can you believe it? Someone did. Dangerously Delicious Pies has
opened in Canton and introduced its Baltimore Bomb pie.
This pie should come with a warning.
“Beware. This truly is Dangerously Delicious and we will
single handedly expand the waistline of all Berger loving Baltimorians with
this pie. Handle with Care.”
Dangerously Delicious’s owner Rodney Henry, has created this
incredible new crack….I’m sorry…pie packed full of Berger Cookies, melted and swirled
into an amazingly sweet and creamy vanilla chess filling. I’m telling you I
gained 10 pounds just looking at this pie.
And I don’t
care! It was amazing. A small slice will do you but you have to do it. Try it
warm. Try it cold. But try it!
My ass
might hate you, Henry, but your ode to Berger is worth every calorie.
This pie
has made Christmas easy. Baltimore Bomb for everyone! My mother will curse me
while she licks the pie plate clean.
And hey,
when you’re dropping in for your bomb, stick around and enjoy the music. Dangerously
Delicious doesn’t just pay homage to Berger. It’s a pretty rockin place,
showcasing some great bands. Check out their Facebook page for more
information....and Weight Watchers help me, you can follow their pie truck on Twitter.
