Had some cranberries left over in the freezer from the holidays so I decided to make this dessert tonight. This was absolutely delicious!!! My hubby and I loved them! This recipe is definitely a keeper. It didn't come out like the picture, but it tasted awesome! Yummy!

Wow, these were so easy to make but look and tasted like you spent hours. The only substitution I made was 1/3 cup orange juice instead of water. Will make over and over again!

Although my crostatas didn't look as good as those pictured, they were really good. Easy to make.

I made these for Thanksgiving. Although my husband complained that they were a bit tart, everyone gobbled them up. I like tart, so I thought they were great. The almond flavor is a really nice compliment to the cranberries. Not hard to make, I was able to make them with a 3 month old strapped to my chest!

Other than a diabetic why does anyone want to change a recipe that Pillsbury has tested over and over again? Lolo

Forgot to suggest the juice of a lemon (use it in the cranberry relish in previous tip) if it seems too sweet with the almond paste.

Try orange marmalade instead of honey, after partially pre-baking the cranberries with sugar in casserole tightly covered with foil; method works for my mom's delicious cranberry orange relish.

I was a little disappointed with this one, the cranberries I used were fresh, and it came out extremely tart, probably won't make them again.

Just a note about Splenda. It's becoming more and more popular, but please be careful. Some of us are allergic to Splenda. Thanks.

I served this as an alternative dessert for Thanksgiving. It was delicious! I did have trouble making my pie crust stick together like in the picture, but it still tasted great!
