Got this recipe from my aunt in the early 60’s and have served it every year since, always in the same bowl, my mom’s old Pyrex bowl with tulips on the sides.

Difficulty: Easy

Servings: 18-20

Prep Time: about 15 minutes + overnight for cranberries and sugar to sit in fridge

2 cups sugar
2 cups crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup chopped nuts (pecans or English walnuts are good)
3/4 pound miniature marshmallows
1 pint whipped cream

Directions

Grind 1 pound raw cranberries. Add 2 cups sugar. Let sit in fridge overnight. The next day, add 2 cups drained, crushed pineapple, 1 cup chopped nuts and 3/4 pound miniature marshmallows. Mix well and add 1 pint whipped cream.
