Spring and summer is busy season for a favorite southern dessert, dirtcake. It contains no dirt and isn't even a cake. What it is however, is a very delicious and creamy layered dessert, perfect for any occasion.
Fresh and sweet cherries really put this dessert over the top. The hardest part is figuring out what serving bowl to use to showcase it's bounty!!
