What Treats Can I Make With Cranberries?!


Question: What Treats Can I Make With Cranberries!?
I need a muffin or cake sort of dessert thats main ingredients are cranberries!. I also have sliced almonds!.I have all the other usual ingredients too!. Flour,sugar,baking powder, ect!. But I do not have any powdered sugar, so I can't really prepare anything with a frosting/icing!.
Thank you very much for your help :)
P!.S the cranberries are dried, but i can make them like fresh by soaking them in water!. So anything that calls for a cranberries to be decorative and not actually part of the dessert, wouldnt look nice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
