using up cranberry sauce and Brandy butter?

skintmum2012

Hi everyone I have just had my Approved foods order and I am not sure why maybe its because I am missing Christmas but I have ordered a Christmas thing leaving me with a jar of brandy butter and cranberry sauce I was wondering is there any recipes I can make to use them up? And thought if any one knew it would be you guys. Thanks for any help I know it's a tad nut's

I like brandy butter on pancakes.

Not sure about the cranberry sauce, but it goes well with smoked fish like mackerel or haddock - so it might go with home made fishcakes? Otherwise with white meat like chicken or pork, or even cured meats?

Brie and cranberry sauce is one of my favourite sandwiches.

Cranberry Sauce/Jelly goes with most meats in my flat - especially Boiled Ham, Roast Pork, Chicken, Lamb. Not tried it with Roast Beef, but bet it still tastes good .

Just thinking that Cheese/Cranberry/Ham Toastie sounds :drool:.

Another in favourite of the brie and cranberry, but I do toasties or paninis.
Another is baking the brie in container and serving with the cranberry sauce and crusty bread.....I want some now!

Haven't tried it personally but have you thought of brandy butter on scones, perhaps with a spoonful or raspberry or strawberry jam. Good job you can't see me drooling!

You could make a fruit cake with the brandy butter.

Another vote here for the brie/cranberry sauce combo!

Would cranberry sauce work as a slightly tart cheesecake topping? Or melted, a little more sugar added, and used over ice cream or pancakes or yoghurt as a fruit compote.

I love both brie and cranberry individually, but actually find Brie 'lacking' in a sarnie.

However, I did have both a jar of cranberry sauce and some casserole beer to use up and can recommend them braised with red wine. I think this is the recipe I used

It is one of those that gets better a day or so after making, indeed I froze some potions and they were fab with green veg and a couple of Yorkshire puds.

It's an odd combo that really does work.
