#350 sugared cranberries

1.5 cups sugar
1 cinnamon stick
3 cloves
1.5 cups fresh, whole, cranberries
~1 cup confectioners sugar (I think I used about 1/2 cup)

Simmer together sugar, cinnamon and cloves until sugar completely dissolves. Add in cranberries and let sit 8 hrs in the fridge. Then, drain the cranberries (liquid may be reserved for coctails) and coat with confectioners sugar. They will be very gooey, spread on a pan and let air dry ~ 2 hrs, the sugar forms a crisp shell on the outside of the cranberry.
