Cherry Cranberry Dessert

My husband loves cherries and for his birthday he always wants cherry pie, but sometimes, like this year, I don't have time to make cherry pie, so I get creative in making a cherry dessert and he loves it. This one was a special hit... and best of all was that it was fast and easy.










This is how it looked when it came out of the oven... don't judge the dessert by its looks though... it was wonderful. :)

We served it warm with vanilla ice cream and all agreed that we need to keep this recipe and make it again... and we will!
