For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to partially blend the mixture after cooking. If you prefer a less sweet sauce, start with 1/2 cup of confectioners' sugar and add more to taste. A pinch of ground cloves or nutmeg can add warmth and complexity to the flavor profile. Serve chilled alongside roasted turkey, chicken, or pork.

02
StepPlace the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally. (5 minutes)
03
StepReduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens, about 15 to 20 minutes.
04
StepUse a spatula to gently crush any remaining whole cranberries against the side of the saucepan to release their juices. (2 minutes)
05
StepRemove from heat and let cool completely. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
06
