I tried again! And it came out pretty tasty! The funny thing is that even so, I had to throw most of it out. I made it on a Friday so I couldn't just take it into the office next day, and since the recipe involves 1 cup clarified butter, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup chickpea flour, I couldn't eat that all myself!

But it really did undo a lot of the frustration to make the dessert again and have it come out and be yummy.
