2 teaspoons baking soda |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 cup molasses |

1/2 cup butter, cubed |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder. Combine molasses and water; stir into dry ingredients. Fold in cranberries. Pour into a well-greased 4-cup pudding mold; cover. 2. Place mold on a rack in a deep stockpot; add 1 in. of hot water to pan. Bring to a gentle boil; cover and steam for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, adding water to pan as needed. Let stand for 5 minutes before removing from mold. 3.
