Cracked Pumpkin Pie

You baked a pumpkin pie for the Thanksgiving dessert and it looks absolutely beautiful to you. The crust turned out perfect and the coloring is dark and rich. It even has a character building crack running through it which, in your mind, proves that it is homemade. But your Aunt Matilda can’t keep her mouth shut and points out why you have a crack in the pie. Next time, cover the pie with whipped cream or dust it with powdered sugar and keep Aunt Matilda away from the dessert table.
