I tried a new recipe yesterday. I thought it was really good and worth sharing.

Baked Cranberry Pudding

2 cups flour

1 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

3 tablespoons melted shortening (I used butter)

2/3 cup milk

1 egg

2 cups cranberries

Hot Butter Sauce

Sift the flour, sugar and baking powder into a mixer bowl. Add the shortening, milk and egg. Beat for 2 minutes. Stir in the cranberries. Pour into a buttered 9-inch square baking dish.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Cut into 3-inch squares. Serve with Hot Buttered Sauce.

Yield: 9 squares

Hot Butter Sauce

1/2 cup butter

1 cup sugar

3/4 cup light cream or milk (I used milk)

Melt the butter in a double boiler over hot water. Add the sugar and light cream. (I didn't use a double boiler. I used a sauce pan and kept the heat low).

Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Yield: 2 cups

I bought this cookbook several years ago while on a family vacation to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. There are quite a few recipes I use from this book on a regular basis.
