Cranberry cake is a delicious holiday dessert. It’s a simple cake to make and it’s sure to impress your guests. It’s also a great Thanksgiving dessert.
I started baking at about two years old. It’s something I love and my favorite time to bake is around the holidays. Food is such a big part of the holidays and desserts are my favorite.
I usually make cookies but I enjoy making cakes as well. They tend to be more work so you usually have to allow for more time and mess.
This Christmas Cranberry Cake is simple though. It doesn’t use a frosting but is instead just dusted in powder sugar so that helps reduce the number of steps involved.
It also uses normal ingredients, other than cranberries. I keep a few bags of cranberries in my freezer after stocking up around Thanksgiving each year, so I usually have some on hand. I love not needing to buy anything extra and being able to throw this cake together quickly.
I love that this cranberry cake isn’t overly sweet and has a nice tartness with the cranberries. It’s a lovely light dessert that is perfect with a cup of tea or coffee.

How much butter? It’s not listed in the ingredients.

Uh oh! It had been in the list, not sure how it disappeared. It’s back now, 2 tablespoons.
