Do I look fat? Does this make me look fat? Well, so much for dieting, but oh so worth it. Made for PRMR. -
We followed the directions, but it turned out dry and crumbly, not sure what went wrong. It tastes good but the texture is all wrong. Maybe we should have cooked it less?? -
I followed the directions watching the temperature so closely. It was dry and crumbly after it cooled. What did I do wrong?

Looks wonderful. But my sugar burnt before it ever reached to soft boil stage, even on simmer. Very disappointing!
