Cranberry mincemeat

Yield: 30 - 2 oz sev

Measure Ingredient
4 cups Cranberries; fresh/frozen

4 larges Apples; (2 lbs.) cored and coarsely chopped
1 cup Molasses; dark or light
¼ cup Cider vinegar;
1 teaspoon Allspice;
1 teaspoon Cinnamon;
¼ teaspoon Nutmeg;
2½ cup Packed brown sugar;
¾ cup Mixed candied-fruit; finely chopped

In a six-quart pan bring water and cranberries to a boil over high heat. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until cranberries pop open.

Stir in remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about one hour, stirring occasionally. The mixture should be as thick a jam. Cover and store in refrigerator for up to a month. Freeze for longer storage. Make 2-½ quarts or 30 2-oz servings.
