From Thanksgiving through Christmas, you'll find these tart and tasty treats at our house. Although the recipe uses a convenient mix, it's made-from-scratch scrumptious! Ingredients:
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 package (15.6 ounces) cranberry-orange quick bread mix |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
2/3 cup butter, melted |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/3 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup butterscotch caramel fudge ice cream topping |
1-1/2 cups chopped dates |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine cranberries and sugar; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the quick bread mix, oats, butter and brown sugar; set aside 1 cup for topping. Press remaining crumb mixture into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. 2. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine flour and ice cream topping until smooth; set aside. Sprinkle the cranberry mixture, dates and nuts over crust; drizzle with ice cream topping mixture. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. 3. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or cold. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 15-18 servings. |
