Just before that first Thanksgiving dinner, a wise Native American woman was overheard to say,
Don’t feed them. If you feed them, they’ll never leave.

There is a restaurant in New York, the Momofuku Milk Bar, that has a pie so addictive they trademarked its name, Crack Pie. And guess what?
You can order this $44.00 dessert and have it sent by overnight delivery for Thanksgiving as long as you make their November 22nd deadline.
Momofuku’s Christina Tosi dreamed up the recipe; it’s a toasted oatmeal cookie-like crust with a gooey butter filling that has a rich salty-sweet taste. There is also a recipe on Epicurious (image by Christopher Griffith) with a litany of helpful reviews that share cooks’ tips.
Preparation time is 15 hours from start to finish so it’s not a light commitment. The long wind-up probably contributes to the craving sensations that begin to crop up around the 11th hour. I’d make two just in case.
