12 ounces cranberries (fresh or frozen) |

1/2 cup brandy |
2 tablespoons orange zest (finely shredded ' or substitute 1 1/2 teaspoons orange oil) |

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Sort through cranberries and discard any that are soft or decayed.
3. Mix cranberries, sugar, brandy, and orange zest in a Pyrex baking dish.
4. Bake, covered, for one hour.
5. While the cranberries are roasting, toast the walnuts in a medium-heat iron skillet, on the stove top, stirring constantly, until fragrant ~ be careful not to burn them!
6. Stir toasted walnuts into hot roasted cranberries.
7. Makes approximately 3 cups. Chill up to one week.
