One half cup Molasses
1 teaspoon Baking soda
One half cup Hot water
1 cup Cranberries, cut in half
1 One half cup Flour

SAUCE
One half cup Butter
One half cup Cream

Using a wooden spoon, combine the sugar and molasses in a medium bowl. Mix
the soda in hot water and pour it into the sugar mixture. Add the salt and
cranberries, and stir well. Add the flour and mix. Butter a 1 pound coffee
can. Pour the dough in and put the cover on. Place in a deep kettle of hot

medium heat until clear. Stir in the vanilla and serve hot over hot
cranberry pudding.
