Tasty Southern Dessert

Imagine being handed the dessert menu from the greatest Southern restaurant in history-one that transcended state lines and generations (and menu item limits). That's this book. We're going through the most storied and most beloved Southern desserts ever made. These treats are the definition of "Don't mess with a good thing." Especially a good thing that comes covered in sky-high meringue. As much as Southerners love their fried chicken and cornbread, we define some of these classic recipes as the ultimate comfort food. You'll recognize them as the desserts your grandmother would make for big occasions and for no particular reason at all, using things like peaches, pecans, buttermilk, and more. Read on for the South's most famous desserts, and get ready to make a grocery run afterwards for all the ingredients
