What do you get when you cross cranberries and cherry preserves? Just make these and see! The combination of the two is delicious and festive and a dessert you won't likely forget! I have made these with almond extract and it's very good that way also. *Note: These are not the traditional shape, rather they are shaped like a pinwheel. Source: Taste of Home
