Piecaken seems to be the current fad. Its a baked pie, baked again in the center of a cake. So when you eat it, you get many textures. Im drooling... but its hours of work.
See below link for instructions.

Just at a glance, you could make a very easy cheat version using boxes mixes and a storebought pie! I've also seen recipes where it's just the pie and cake without the brownie.
Somewhere I recently saw a triple decker version with three kinds of pie each baked In a Different kind of cake then layered together with frosting- not my cup of tea, but certainly creative!

It's hard to follow that recipe. I hate the blogger recipes where they have a zillion pictures and don't have the instructions in one place.
Rant over.
I think if you break down the steps, it's not particularly hard or time consuming to make because you are just essentially making a few different mixes and then combining them
There are recipes that are much more of a patchke that I've made like the Ebingers Blackout Cake. But this one has very basic steps and doesn't really take a long time to assemble or is tricky in any way.
I think from a cost benefit analysis it would be a good recipe to make. It's pretty simple when you analyze it and there isn't anything tricky that even a relatively inexperienced baker couldn't do so you are assured of a good result. And the applause of the eaters would make it worth what is really not much if an effort.

Sorry folks that whole pie in a cake thing doesn't work for me. I'm not thrilled with the pie filling and combining it with cake just doesn't work for my sweet tooth. I make a killer pie crust (thank you Julia) and it would be a shame to waste it by stuffing it in a cake.

Yeah, I'm thinking, pie or cake, pick one!
DD makes a fudge pie (brownie-like with molten chocolate inside) in a pie crust that is amazing though I don't eat it any more.
But this recipe seems like a ridiculous waste of time. Kind of like the rolled up potato kugel inside lukshen kugel that someone came up with in one of the mags. Oh please!

To all the Piecaken critics, watch Kelly of Kelly and Michael have a Piecaken-gasm.
