2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
3 tbsp. melted butter
2/3 c. milk
1 egg
2 c. cranberries, whole

Sift together dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add shortening, milk and egg. Beat all together for 2 minutes. Stir in the cranberries. Bake in 9 inch square pan at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Serve with hot butter sauce.

BUTTER SAUCE:

Melt 1/2 cup butter in double boiler. Add 1 cup sugar and 3/4 cup light cream (half and half). Mix well. Cook over hot water about 5 to 10 minutes until well blended and hot. Stir occasionally. If not using a double boiler, use low heat and stir or whisk often until nicely blended and thickened. Serve hot over cake.
