I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Fifteensquared have:

WELL (as in “well done” = successfully) + PUDDING (couch potato = slang for an overweight lazy person, if we’re allowed to call them that these days), after BAKE (to cook food in an oven = work in kitchen). An earlier version of Bakewell tart; they’re not quite the same but they both include pastry, jam and an almond filling.
