HOW TO PICK FRESH CRANBERRIES: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Before cooking, sort out any soft berries and stems and rinse in cold water.
\nChop fresh berries in small batches in blender or food processor, using short pulses or berries will turn into paste.
\nIf using frozen berries, don’t thaw them before cooking.
\nSort and rinse, then use just like you would fresh berries.
\nCan be frozen in original bags for up to a year.
\n12 oz. bag = 3 cups whole berries.<\/p>\n

Whip until smooth: whipping cream, cream cheese.
\nAdd sugar and lemon juice \u2013 mix well.

\nFreeze either in a mold or festive bowl. If molded, use normal methods of removing to dish (float in warm water until loose is usually best). OR, if served in a bowl, let it stand about 15 to 20 minutes before serving. I like the bowl best because when this dish thaws it runs. This is a family-requested dish for every festive holiday \u2013 especially Thanksgiving and Christmas!<\/p>\n
