Culture Club Chernobyl Cherpumple
A Cherpumple Test Kitchen creation, submitted by Tracy Kunzler

We fell in love with both Charles and the genius of his Cherpumple and felt compelled to make it for the one year anniversary celebration of our Culture Club. Our Culture Club consists of 14 women who try out something “cultural” each month. We’ve gone to wine tastings, listened to ghost stories, paddle-boarded, tasted wine, toured art, decoupaged, tried wine = all sorts of things. We also formed a “REACH” team, reading to children in shelters and supplying them with books and craft projects in an effort to encourage reading. Anyhoo…we thought there would be no other dessert worthy of celebrating one year of cultured living and good deeds other than the Cherpumple. (It was also one member’s birthday.) We made one substitution – we cooked the cherry pie in CHOCOLATE cake. We had a team of three – each baking one layer and made butter-cream cheese frosting for it. We brought the components to the party to assemble there as part of the fun. We used 9″ pans, as our pies
