These Easy Sugared Cranberries only require 2 ingredients and make the most beautiful shimmering holiday garnish! They're super simple to prepare and double as a festive fruity snack.
1. Make a simple syrup in a small saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until the sugar is dissolved. Turn off the heat, then add the cranberries and let them sit in the syrup for about 2 minutes.
2. Use a perforated spoon to transfer the berries to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Let sit for one hour until the cranberries feel tacky. Don't rush this step or the sugar won't stick well.
4. Place the sugared cranberries a plate to dry and set up for at least 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
