When I was growing up, my mom used to make all kinds of cranberry dishes and it usually ended up with whole cranberries being diced and sliced and mixed with some other fruit or sweetener like honey. I am really sorry if I offend someone, but I truly couldn’t hardly force it down. So, for years, I did not eat cranberries.

This is a wonderful dessert to have at the Holidays. The first time I enjoyed this light and fluffy dessert was when culinary students served this at their end-of-the-semester Holiday meal. They were kind enough to share this recipe with me. I did not realize how simple it really was.
New World of Cranberries
However, in the past decade, I have tried dried cranberries-found out I just love them. I have them in salads and by themselves as a snack. I have also tried jellied cranberries. (We never had that when I was growing up). I found out that I like the jellied cranberries too.
Mixing Cranberries with Cream
Hint to preparing Cranberry Fluff ahead of time. I have tried to mix cranberries with whipping cream that is sweetened with a bit of sugar. While it tastes great, it gets a little watery if not eaten within a day.
I do prefer using whipping cream for this as I think it tastes better than the Cool Whip. Therefore, I would make sweet stabilized whipped cream, then add the Jellied Cranberries. It will hold up for a day or two.
However, if I use Cool Whip with cranberries, it also can be made a day ahead of time and it is still great when I need to serve it.
This cranberry fluff recipe has just two ingredients. Good taste does not get any easier than that. Delicious side dish for your next holiday meal. This deserves a place at the table right along with the ham and turkey.

Pink Fluff. It's not complicated. Just combine cottage cheese, jello mix, fruit, and cool whip. The resulting concoction will leave you breathless, and full.
If your cranberry sauce is too thick, it's most likely overcooked. When you cook cranberries (or any berries), they burst, releasing pectin—a natural thickener.
Cranberries actually have quite a lot of pectin, which helps keep the berries nice and firm before they are cooked. When the cranberries are heated on the stovetop in water, they pop open. The longer the berries are in the hot liquid, the more they break apart, which releases more and more pectin into the water.
What is strawberry fluff? Strawberry fluff is a simple dessert made by combining strawberry jello, whipped topping, crushed pineapple, sweetened condensed milk, and fresh strawberries. It is mixed and then served chilled.
Fluff's ingredients include corn syrup, sugar syrup, vanilla flavor, and egg whites. Fluff continues to be a regional tradition in the Northeastern United States.
If you don't have maple syrup (pancake syrup WILL NOT do, y'all), try honey or a more neutral sweetener like agave syrup, brown rice syrup, or even simple syrup. All of these syrupy ingredients are a perfect quick fix for bitter cranberry sauce.
But that's not the case for prepared cranberry sauces, where prices are up. Lochner pointed out that processors set those prices, not growers, and that there are higher input costs unrelated to berries — like “processing the fruit and getting it to market.”
One possibility is that you may not have used enough sugar: Sugar helps the sauce firm up, so be sure to use the full amount called for in a recipe. Another possibility is that the cranberries need to boil for longer, releasing their pectin and ensuring a jelly consistency.
Yes, raw cranberries are safe to consume raw, but you probably don't want to eat them that way. "Cranberries are safe to eat raw. However, usually they are cooked and have sugar added because of the bitter and sharp taste they have when raw," says Kelly West Keyser, a registered dietitian in Alabama.
While eating raw cranberries is safe, too much of the fruit may cause stomach upset ( 5 ). If you're pressing raw cranberries into a juice, drink it in moderate amounts. One serving is typically considered 4 ounces (120 mL). Too much cranberry juice may cause stomach cramps or diarrhea, especially in children.
But why? Ocean Spray says this is to get the cranberry sauce out in one intact piece. “The rounded part of the can that looks like the bottom has an air bubble in it,” Ocean Spray's representative explains. The bubble is there so you can “break the seal the sauce makes with the can.”
What does a fluffernutter taste like? Nutty, salty peanut butter helps balances the sweetness of the marshmallow creme, for a special, mouth-filling combination that's evened out by sandwich bread. It's a lot like a peanut butter-and-jelly sandwich, but without the fruity flavors.
This easy Peanut Butter Fluff recipe makes a rich and creamy dessert dip in 10 minutes. A simple combination of cream cheese, peanut butter, instant pudding, and whipped topping is folded together and filled with plenty of chocolate and peanut butter flavor and candy pieces.
Marshmallows contain gelatin, which helps them hold their shape. Marshmallow fluff is always in “fluff” form and doesn't contain any gelatin; just egg whites and cream of tartar to help stabilize it! Use clean tools. The mixing bowl and whisk attachment both need to be spotless before whipping the eggs.
Most marshmallow fluff is not vegan since it usually contains eggs or egg whites. However, there are a few brands out there that are vegan. The first is Smuckers Marshmallow Topping which happens to be "accidentally" vegan. Look for it at your local grocery store or online.
