4th of July Cornmeal Berry Sheet Cake

6/28/2015

Comments

 
We are a week away from the 4th of July. You have a picnic to go to and you are on the boards to bring dessert. And you are still in need of something delightfully patriotic. How about a cornmeal berry sheet cake with cream? Martha even has a video to walk you through this one. It just feels right -- summer sweet corn, seasonal berries and a healthy heaping of whipped cream.
