Every year around Thanksgiving & Christmas time, My mother in law makes a very yummy treat. She makes Sugared cranberries. They are to die for! The perfect mixture of tart & sweet. I always look forward to them every year. This year, william & i got the hankering for them a little early & decided to try & make them ourselves. They turned out pretty yummy! {Not near as yummy as my mother in laws though :) }
Sparkling Cranberries
1. In a small pot, combine your 2 C of water & 2 C of sugar. Heat until all sugar is dissolved
2. Pour 2 cups of cranberries in a heat safe container
3. pour your hot sugar water over the cranberries.
4. Cover the container & place in the fridge over night.
5. The next day, drain the sugar water from the container.
{You can save this if you want & use it as a sweetener for tea}
6. pour your cranberries into a bowl with lots of sugar. I dont have an exact measurement. we just kind of put as much sugar as we thought looked good :)
7. Toss the cranberries in the sugar, trying to coast every single one with a thin layer of sugar.
8. Pour your sugared cranberries onto a pan or another surface to dry for about 2 hours.
9. Place your sparkling cranberries in a bowl, & enjoy! They are delicious :)
Happy Saturday!
