I kid you not.
Vincent Graff in the Daily Heil:
Ever the enthusiastic chef, I decided to create my own version — in the hope that I would force my wife to eat her words (and the cake, of course).
Taking the American recipe, I left out Thanksgiving ingredients such as sweet potatoes and marshmallows (yuk, those Americans really will eat anything) and substituted some more Christmassy ones.
Quite simply, if it’s on your plate on December 25, it goes into the cake: turkey, potatoes, carrots, parsnips, sage and onion stuffing, bread sauce and cranberry sauce.
And, just like the typical Christmas dinner, you need a handful of Brussels sprouts — which can be picked out and discarded in the traditional manner.
All of the ingredients are arranged in layers like a Black Forest gateau, and the cake is ‘iced’ with mashed potato and served with gravy.
