Cranberries . Cranberries . Cranberries !
I came across this sweet confectionary on pisforparty . blogspot . com . The ingredients and preparation are simple and the presentation idea is elegant . The cranberries burst in your mouth and are tart and sweet . The poppers will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week in an airtight container .
CRANBERRY POPPERS 2 cups granulated sugar 2 cups water 1 bag fresh cranberries 1 cup superfine or powdered sugar
Dissolve the granulated sugar in water over low heat in a saucepan . Bring to a simmer ; remove from heat . ( Do not boil — you do not want the cranberries to pop .) Stir in cranberries ; pour mixture into a bowl which will be refrigerated for 8 hours .
Drain cranberries . Fill a container or bowl with the powdered sugar and coat the entire berry with it by rolling it around in the container . Spread out the berries on wax paper and wait for them to dry ( about 1 – 2 hours ). Keep in a cool , dry place for up to a week before serving .
