Cranberry Christmas Cake #Christmas #Cake

This Cranberry Christmas cake is one of my favorite recipes that each time someone new to taste it.

Cranberry tart, sweet butter cake, and the texture was fantastic all combined to essentially told me to eat a piece.

ES, you can use frozen cranberries. I bought some bags of fresh cranberries every year when they began appearing in stores. Just throw them right into the freezer to have on hand throughout the year. I used frozen cranberries almost every time I make this cake.

However, the dough will be "froze " a bit and becomes even thicker and it will be rather more difficult to stir in the cranberries. I find it easiest to let the berries are frozen thaw on the counter for a little while as I'm beginning to prepare the cake.

Materials

• 3 eggs
• 2 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup butter softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 cups all purpose flour see note below for gluten-free alternatives
• 12 oz of fresh cranberries

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. With a mixer, beat the eggs with the sugar until slightly thickened and lighter in color, approximately 5-7 minutes. The mixture should be nearly doubled in size. Egg works as agent of your yeast in this recipe, so don't skip this step. This mixture should form a Ribbon when you lift the whisk from the bowl. Add butter and vanilla; plus two minutes. Stir in flour until just combined. Add the cranberries and stir mixture all over.
2. Spread in buttered 9 x 13 pan. (This is my favorite pan!) Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. (I baked mine for last.) Let cool completely before cutting the strips. I cut my cut is quite small, about 1  "x 2 ", so that they can easily eat at a party. Enjoy!
