 Brandied Cranberries
 These cranberries are a unique and versatile addition to your holiday repertoire.

Recipe adapted from "Simply Irresistible" by Sheila Kaufman
  • 1/2 pound fresh cranberries
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 4 to 5 tablespoons brandy
  • additional sugar (optional)


  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a jellyroll pan with parchment paper.

    Wash the cranberries and drain them, removing any damaged berries or foreign objects. Arrange the berries in a single layer on parchment-lined pan. Sprinkle with sugar. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil; bake one hour.

    Remove from the oven and scrape the berries and any liquid into a bowl. Sprinkle the berries with brandy, taste and add additional sugar if desired. When berries have cooled, place in glass jar or sealed container and refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. Will keep for several weeks if stored properly.

    Makes 2 cups.
