Ingredients

Serves/Makes:4 Servings


Ingredients 
1 tsp (5 ml) unflavored gelatin 
2 tbsp (30 ml) cold water 
1 cup (225 ml) jellied cranberry sauce 
1/4 cup (60 ml) powdered sugar 
2 egg whites 
1/2 cup (125 ml) heavy cream, whipped 
1/2 tsp (2 ml) vanilla 
whipped cream or custard sauce, garnish 

Instructions

Preparation Soften gelatin in cold water. Heat 1/2 cup (125 ml) cranberry sauce and dissolve gelatin in it; cool. Add powdered sugar and remaining cranberry sauce. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites and whipped cream to which vanilla has been added. Chill. Serve with whipped cream or custard sauce. Comments Note: I am too paranoid to use raw egg whites, so I whip the cranberry and gelatin mixture to an inch of it's life and then fold in the whipped cream and omit the raw eggs.
