I promised to blog my cranberry recipe so here it is. It would be great warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you can't find fresh cranberries now, Whole Foods has fresh frozen cranberries you can use. Just rinse them and use in the recipe, no need to thaw.
Cranberry Treats
Top Layer Bottom Layer
1 stick butter (room temp) 1 package fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup sugar 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tsp. vanilla 1/4 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
2 eggs
Preheat oven to 325°
Cream butter with 1 cup sugar and vanilla. In a separate bowl, sift flour and add baking powder. Beat well both eggs and combine with sugar/butter mixture. Add the flour mixture.
Meanwhile, in a well buttered 10 in. or so deep pie pan, or rectangular brownie pan, which I prefer, pour in package of cranberries (rinsed and stems removed). Add walnuts and sprinkle in 1/4 cup sugar. Spread the top layer mixture over the bottom layer like frosting. Bake one hour. Can be served warm or at room temperature. This is my comfort fall and winter dessert. Hope all my fellow Everyday Girls and Guys like it. Happy eating.
