Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 14

Filling:
3/4 dried cranberries
1/3 c cherry preserves
1 1/2 T sugar
1/8 t almond extract
Dough:
2 C plus 2T flour
1/4 t baking powder
1/4 t salt
3/4 c sugar
2/3 c softened butter
1 egg
2 1/4 t vanilla
1/2 t almond extract

Steps:

  • In food processor, blend the cranberries, preserves and sugar, then cook just until it comes to a boil. Stir in almond extract and cool. Stir together the dry dough ingredients and set aside. With the mixer, beat the sugar and butter, then add egg and extracts. Beat in the flour mixture. Line a bread pan with foil, leaving an overlap. Working on waxed paper, divide the dough into quarters. Pat each portion into the size/shape of the pan. Pat each portion into the pan, then spread with a third of the filling, ending with dough on the top. Fold plastic wrap over the dough and freeze until firm. Remove from pan, cut crosswise into four block, then slice into 1/4 inch slices. Bake on greased sheets for 9-14 minutes at 350 degrees until just brown at edges. Cool on racks. Keeps well for at least a week, and the dough can be frozen for up to one month. Pretty and delicious!

I had some trouble getting the ribbons to hold together, but I think that was because I didn't chill them long enough. Other than that, they were delicious.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just personal preference. Overall, they were still a good dessert.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these icebox ribbons. The cherries balance out the tartness of the cranberries perfectly.
