Mellows them out a bit.

The shortbread had a nice snap and the ginger and orange enhanced the cranberries very nicely.

REALLY good dried ginger but still, it was the dry variety.<br /><br />Results were as expected; outstanding presentation and a great adult taste (love that it&#39;s not too sweet).<br /><br />By his permission,if you would like the recipe for the larger pan size, please visit http://vinolucistyle.com/2009/11/cranberry-sauce-with-merlot-molasses-toasted-walnuts/Barbarahttp://www.vinolucistyle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28702549.post-23868336309582057012009-11-19T10:44:16.786-08:002009-11-19T10:44:16.786-08:00these look fantastic! also, its never too early for cranberry sauce. i made my first batch this weekend and its half gone already, because we eat it on everything (i.e., last night it was on fake chicken patties for me and on pasta for my grrrl).Stefaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00376836727170529579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28702549.post-55208971955572714402009-11-19T09:37:03.471-08:002009-11-19T09:37:03.471-08:00Uhm.<br />A) You are adorable, as usual.<br />B) I happen to love Ocean Spray&#39;s cranberry-like concoction. It&#39;s best if it keeps it&#39;s can-like shape, IMHO.<br />C) This looks delish.

These look fabulous! I have been stocking up on cranberries and also have a crapload of them. I am very picky what I make with them though because I have nightmares of cranberry season ending and forgetting to replenish my stash. I will definitely be making these, they look delicious. I somewhow stumbled upon your blog one day &amp; am now addicted.

Not only does the recipe sound delicious, but your sigh regarding her substitutions made me laugh. Because I cringed when I read that! I also find your ice cream maker comment cute, because I&#39;d love to have one but sure don&#39;t.emilyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09163407131693426492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28702549.post-37632135783361809602009-11-18T11:06:16.233-08:002009-11-18T11:06:16.233-08:00As a side note, do you have a good recipe for cranberry sauce?Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09564974360411500644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28702549.post-70878260732461393442009-11-18T10:50:50.543-08:002009-11-18T10:50:50.543-08:00Garrett,<br /><br />I added you to my Twitter list of &quot;foodies I trust&quot;, because it&#39;s true, clearly.

Last year couldn&#39;t find any so now may have overdone!<br /><br />Regarding the inquiry about making it in 9X13 (117 sq in) vs 8X8 (64 sq in)pans, I would double before I would spread this out so thin in a larger pan.Barbara @ Vino Luci Stylehttp://www.vinolucistyle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28702549.post-16859929695391876982009-11-18T09:49:59.351-08:002009-11-18T09:49:59.351-08:00OMG is right - these look amazing!

Next up: cranberry jam. <br /><br />Gail - I say go for it.
