I had intended to post several recipes throughout November that could be used for your Thanksgiving meal but as I said time just got away from me. I am going to post one recipe tonight though and hope to post several good ones throughout December that can be used for your special Christmas Dinners.
Frozen Cranberry Salad is a favorite in our family and my kids would be VERY UPSET if I did not make it for our Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners. I only make it twice a year because it has whipping cream in it!! It is very delicious I think you will love it.
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 (16 ounce) can whole cranberry sauce
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Mix together cream cheese, butter, sugar, cranberry sauce, pineapple and nuts. Set aside.
Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
Fold into cranberry mixture.
Now you can put it in a loaf pan, freeze and then slice it. I like to put my
salad in a pretty bowl, freeze and let my guests scoop out as much as they want. That's it....simple yet delicious.
Frozen Cranberry Salad...
WILL be on Farmchick's Thanksgiving table on Thursday!!!

Yum! I'm always looking for new ways to turn cranberries into something special. I think I just found it! Thanks for sharing. xxoo
ReplyDeleteI have this recipe and love it too! Wasn't planning on making it but now I think I need to. :o)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds really good and easy to make. Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteMmmm...sounds yummy! Unfortunately, I'd have to leave out the nuts, due to our youngest son's allergy to tree nuts. It would still work, though, don'tcha think?
ReplyDeletePlease keep my hubby in your prayers. He has been diagnosed with a herniated disc. He will have an MRI tomorrow morning at 8:30 a.m. and will be referred to a neurologist/neurosurgeon. He's in quite a bit of pain, which stinks anytime, but especially during the holidays.
Thanks for praying.
Happy Thanksgiving!
It's pink! Why have you been keeping it from me so long? I cooked two meals today! Poor Jon's tummy is full!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving farmchick!
