A Thanksgiving Dessert Recipe From The Best Christmas Blog

Yesterday I gave you a Thanksgiving ham recipe. Today on The Best Christmas Blog I want to give you a dessert recipe to go with it. Thanksgiving and cranberries seem to go together. Well, here's a different way to serve cranberries. How about as a pudding.

This is a baked cranberry pudding recipe that I hope you will enjoy.

Ingredients:
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs, separated
half cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
half teaspoon ground nutmeg
1and half cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons grated orange peel
1 teaspoon baking powder
half teaspoon cream of tartar, divided
One eighth teaspoon salt
3 cups coarsely chopped fresh cranberries
One fourth cup butter or margarine, melted

Topping :
1 and half cups sugar
half cup orange juice
2 and half cups whole cranberries

Preparation:
In a bowl, combine brown sugar and egg yolks, then add whipping cream, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg; set aside. In a large bowl, combine flour, orange peel, baking powder, quarter teaspoon cream of tartar and salt. Add chopped cranberries; stir to completely coat. Add brown sugar mixture and butter; mix well. Beat egg whites until foamy. Add the remaining cream of tartar. Fold into batter. Pour into a greased pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes.

Meanwhile, for topping, bring sugar and orange juice to a boil in a saucepan. Cook for 3 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat; add cranberries and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes or until berries begin to burst. Remove from heat and cover.

When pudding tests done, place spring form pan on a jelly roll pan. Spread warm cranberry sauce over top. Return to the oven for 10 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before removing sides of springform pan. Cool at least 1 hour or overnight. Before serving, reheat at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes.
