Cranberry Christmas Cake

Moist, delicious, and made with only 6 ingredients this cranberry Christmas cake is a burst of fresh cranberry flavor mixed with a buttery, cakey texture in each bite.

Ingredients

  • 3 Eggs
  • 2 Cups Sugar
  • 3/4 Cup Unsalted butter Softened
  • 2 Tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 Cups All-purpose flour
  • 12 Oz Fresh cranberries

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Beat the eggs with your mixer until slightly thickened, about 7 minutes. 
  • Add the butter and the vanilla & mix for another 2 minutes. Stir in the flour until just combined and then fold in the fresh cranberries. 
  • Spread in a greased 9x13 pan - or 2 9” round pans. I like to bake this in round pans, and double the recipe, to give as gifts for Christmas. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until lightly browned & a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. 
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before cutting into small pieces, if desired.
