We shared this tasty and super easy recipe over at I Heart Naptime but we had to share it here as well for those of you looking for an easy, last-minute, festive dessert! We also wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas, we hope it’s wonderful! We’ll be back here next week, we miss you already. Now, back to the recipe!
First you’ll need to start by taking 1/2 cup of fresh cranberries and cooking them down over a medium-low heat. 
Add 2 Tablespoons of sugar and watch as the natural juices will release and the berries will cook down and combine.
Set the cranberries aside and start on the batter! One box of Spice Cake Mix with an Instant Vanilla Pudding package added for extra moisture.
Add the cranberry mixture:
Pour batter in to a greased bundt pan – we can’t help but make everything mini, so we love this mini bundt pan! Then bake at 350 for 40-45 min.
Once they’ve cooled completely you can drizzle icing over them. We love this recipe:
1 heaping tablespoon soft butter
2 cups powdered sugar
Milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Add milk slowly to make right consistency; add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix well.If too thin, add more sugar. If too thick, add a few more drops of milk.
Once they’re set, devour and enjoy! This is an awesome, quick recipe, and a great way to get the antioxidants of fresh cranberries without that bitter bite!
