I got this from a neighbor while living in Germany and modified it a little. She was an American too. This was always a hit at every get-together we had! Fresh cranberries with jalapenos, sugar, green onions, and cilantro makes for great salsa. Add the cream cheese and you have a great dip! Serve with Ritz® crackers or Wheat Thins®.

Tips:

  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
  • Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the nuts.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the nuts by hand with a sharp knife.
  • Be sure to mix the cranberries, sugar, and cornstarch together before adding them to the saucepan. This will help prevent the cranberries from sticking together.
  • Bring the cranberry mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the cranberries have softened and the mixture has thickened.
  • While the cranberry mixture is simmering, make the cream cheese filling. Be sure to use softened cream cheese so that it mixes smoothly.
  • Once the cranberry mixture has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
  • Spread the cream cheese filling over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Top the cream cheese filling with the cranberry mixture.
  • Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the cranberry mixture.
