This is my version of a lovely holiday garnish, snack or dessert. This one uses honey and vanilla instead of corn syrup or egg wash. Use vanilla extract for a kid friendly variety, but the extra spike of the liquors make an excellent adult candy addiction!
Ingredients
- 1lb fresh cranberries shopping list
- 1/4 cup honey shopping list
- 1t vanilla extract OR sub orange, raspberry, spiced, etc rum or similar liquor shopping list
- 1 cup sugar(granulated or superfine) shopping list
How to make it
- In a small saucepan, heat honey and flavoring just until warm and has thinned out. Don't boil or even cook.
- Place berries in large glass bowl.
- Pour honey mixture over berries and immediately stir to coat.
- Sprinkle sugar onto large tray or cookie sheet, etc.
- Now, this is how I like to do this next step, but the idea is to coat each berry, individually, so use your method, if you've got a better one! :)
- Drop 1/2 the berries over to one side of the tray and then flick a berry at a time off the mound and roll it through the sugar, then over to the side and continue with the next berry. This whole process took me less than 10 minutes. See Photo
- Once all berries are covered once, run them BACK through the sugar, briefly, to try to get them covered well.
- Let rest at room temperature, uncovered, for a couple of hours.
