How many of you are making cranberries for Thanksgiving tomorrow? If you love cranberries, I urge you to save a few and try these sugared cranberries!
That have a perfect crunch into a tart center surrounded by that dusting of sweet sugar.
I love how they look like they have frost all over them.
Make a simple syrup from sugar and water, toss the cranberries in it, let them set for one hour. Gently toss them in granulated sugar.
Use as a garnish or fun sweet-tart treat.
