Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package fresh or frozen cranberries
- 2 1/4 cups cranberry juice
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 envelopes unflavored gelatin
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the cranberries, 2 cups cranberry juice, and sugar until the mixture is bubbling and the cranberries have burst. Meanwhile, sprinkle the gelatin over the remaining 1/4 cup cranberry juice to soften. Whisk the gelatin mixture into the hot cranberries. Strain this into a bowl and let cool. Spray your mold with nonstick cooking spray and pour the cooled juice into the mold. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight. To unmold, briefly dip the mold into hot water to loosen it.

I made this in a shallow rectangle pan then cut it in one inch squares. The gelatin consistency made it perfect for the filling of a candy that I was looking for. I dipped it in dark chocolate and sprinkled it with dried cranberries soaked in brandy. It set beautifully for a perfect confection. Very easy and impressive.
I’ve used this recipe every year and it’s always a hit. So much better than the canned stuff and it’s simple to make.
its so fun to make this just to have on the table, i have the mold and everything… as for taste its fine, i always make a conserve anyway this just looks so cool…
I made this for Thanksgiving. I cut the recipe in half due to the size of our family. I was extremely careful to measure the precise amount of gelatin I needed to use, as well as all of the other ingredients. I poured the mixture into small decorative molds for individual presentation. No one ate them. They were the consistency of gummy bears. Tossed the recipe.
I made this recipe last year and it was such a hit I am making it again this year. If you are looking for something easy but impressive then this is for you. It tastes as good as it looks.
this was excellent. everyone at the dinner party kept asking who made the cranberry jelly “from scratch.” 🙂 thanks george!
everyone really enjoyed the cranberry jelly and it was super easy to make
