2 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup sour cream
¼ cup butter, diced

Steps:

Pour boiling water over the cranberries to cover. Let stand for 5 minutes and drain.
In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, flour and salt. Gradually stir in the milk and eggs. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
