Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
You can buy fresh cranberries in season and freeze them for later use. They do not have to be thawed thoroughly to be used in this recipe. And you do not have to add any sugar to them before adding to the dough. The sweet dough, tart berries, and almond flavoring are a nice combination.
