Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups fresh cranberries
½ cup water
3 egg yolks
1 large egg
¾ cup white sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter, diced

Steps:

This cranberry curd is a delightful treat! The tartness of the cranberries pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the sugar and the creaminess of the butter. I used it to fill a tart shell and it was a hit with my family and friends.
