I made this recipe and took it to our family Thanksgiving celebration. Everyone liked it but my 92 year old grandma thought it was too sweet. Maybe she likes the cranberries a little more tart. I thought they were a perfect blend. It did not coagulate like I thought it would, but here is what I did with the leftovers. 1. We had breakfast for supper tonight. I made waffles and placed the cranberry sauce on the waffles with some home made cinnamon whipped cream. 2. I made kolache's (my other grandmother's no fail recipe!) I used the cranberry sauce for the filling. YUMMO! I was able to place one berry and some of the sauce in each kolache. I can't wait for my dad to try them tomorrow. Maybe not the same as Grandmas, but the dough definately brings her back to me! I will make this recipe many times now that I have found my favorite.

I had to make cranberry sauce for my 4yr olds class party. I doubled this and it came out great! Truly simple and delicious!

Easy to make and delicious! SO much better than canned cranberry sauce. I had 2 requests for the recipe.

Fast, easy, excellent flavor. The ONLY thing my 6 yr old Granddaughter requested that I bring for Thanksgiving was this recipe. She and I both love it. Great to bring to a pot luck. It gets raves.
