Story

This is a great way to use up the cranberry-orange relish from the holiday meal. But, if you don't have any leftovers handy and still want to make these, it's easy to whip up a batch of relish to use.
Put about 1 cup of fresh cranberries along with 1/4 of a small fresh orange in the food processor and pulse until the combined well and orange is chopped small. Add enough sugar to taste and pulse again.
If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use whole canned cranberries. In that case, be sure to blend the fresh orange first until chopped small, then add the canned cranberries and pulse again until blended.
