CRANBERRY ORANGE TASSIES



Cranberry Orange Tassies image

I love tassies! They are like the perfect little bite of pie, but sort of a cookie all at the same time. I got this recipe from one of the special holiday cookie publications that you see at the checkout counter. I somehow always get sucked into buying them! I have also made these with dried cherries and dried blueberries. I haven't decided which is my favorite, I love all three. I am going to post the recipe as written, which calls for refrigerated pie crust. However, I have used the dough from Recipe #118431 and it worked just fine.

Time 45m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup water
2/3 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup orange marmalade
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
3 ounces white chocolate chips
1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated unbaked pie crusts

Steps:

  • Combine water and cranberries in a small saucepan, bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let sit for 3 minutes. Drain well and let cranberries cool to room temperature. Stir in marmalade, walnuts, and white chocolate and set the filling aside.
  • Per the package instructions, let the piecrust stand at room temperature. Unroll the crust and cut out 24 rounds usings a 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter.
  • Preheat oven to 375*F. Using a tamper press the dough into ungreased mini-muffing pans (you can also press the dough by hand, but the tamper makes things go much faster.).
  • Spoon cranberry filling into pastry cups until almost full (do not overfill because the filling will make a mess.).
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown. Carefully run a small knife around the edges of the tassies in the pan. Carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  • Tassies can be frozen in a single layer for up to one month.

CRANBERRY-ORANGE RELISH



Cranberry-Orange Relish image

This sweet and tart cranberry relish is much more refreshing than cooked cranberry sauce, and it takes about as long to make as it does to open a can. You'll need a food processor for this one; a blender will reduce everything to juice. Leftovers are great for breakfast with plain yogurt.
