Sugar Coated Cranberries

• 2 cups fresh cranberries, washed
• 2 cups sugar, divided
• 1 cup water

Gently dissolve 1 cup sugar in the water in a saucepan. Do not boil.

Pour the cranberries into a bowl. Cover with the simple syrup and refrigerate overnight.

Drain the cranberries, reserving the syrup if you like. 

Pour the remaining sugar into a bowl. Add the cranberries, a few at a time, and coat with the sugar. Place the coated cranberries on a baking rack and allow the sugar to harden. Continue until all the cranberries are coated. Serve and enjoy!
