Make It Now Cooking Directions

Oven Cook

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

  1. In a saucepan over medium high heat, add cranberries, sugar, cinnamon, marmalade, and lemon juice.
  2. Heat to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Set aside to cool.
  4. Roll out pie crust dough and cut dough into 3 inch x 3 inch pieces.
  5. Place one tablespoon of cream cheese in the center of each piece of dough.
  6. Cover with a tablespoon of cranberry sauce and sprinkle with pecan pieces.
  7. Then take each side of the dough and fold them over the filling. It does not have to be perfect, just enough to keep the cranberries and cream cheese inside. Place on a baking sheet.
  8. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

  1. I, too, am from Texas and my grandparents had a big pecan tree in their back yard behind the shop. I remember my sisters and I playing under that tree, such sweet memories 🙂
