1 cup graham cracker crumbs |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries |
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup water |
1/3 cup chopped pecans |
3 tablespoons orange marmalade |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 tablespoon milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped |
Directions:
1. Combine crumbs and butter; press into an ungreased 8-in. square baking dish. Chill.
