Thank you. My DH loves cranberries.

Sounds yummy, I can't wait to try it! Thanks for sharing it =)

I love cranberries, but how much is a "cube of margarine"?

1 cube equals 1/2 cup.

Your timing is great. I had bought some cranberries at Thanksgiving and threw them into the freezer. I have been looking recipes over online but nothing seemed to inspire me. I always like trying recipes shared by friends.
I will have to make this soon. Sounds like it will be quite tasty.
Thank you for sharing the recipe. Fishing, cooking, and now quilting, my favorite things to do

Thanks!

thank you. love cranberrys.

in step #3, do you cook those ingredients awhile? 'cuz it alludes to cooling the mixture....
Thanks

The 2 cups of boiling water will melt the margarine and orange juice concentrate.
