"This recipe was given to me by a former neighbor," pens Doris Brearley from Vestal, New York. The yummy cake relies on baking mix, canned cranberry sauce and an easy nut topping, so it's truly a quick bread.

  • 2 cups biscuit/baking mix
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2/3 cup jellied cranberry sauce
  • TOPPING:

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • GLAZE:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  2. Bake at 400° for 18-23 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
