Design Failure

Apparently Nissan didn't have us in mind when they designed the engine to my truck. After our third attempt at cooking on the engine block during this road trip, I have several theories as to why it is not working, most of which center on a lack of sufficient heat. But not time, oh no! We gave these brownies about 8-9 hours, with little to show for it other than warm brownie goop. Turns out that 9 hours at 130 degrees is not the same as 35 minutes at 350 degrees. I haven't given up yet, but this whole experiment in cooking while driving has proven more difficult than I had imagined.
