Turned out fantastic! I had only 1/2 a bag of cranberries, so subbed about 3/4 C of dried for the other half bag and added an additional 3/4 C water. Worked great!

These were great but I believe that the following changes are necessary: 1)Add more oats. I ended up added 1 or more cups oats to the crust and almost 2 cups more to the reserved topping, to make it manageable to place on top as well as to actually have some texture. The amount of brown sugar is a little much. If you like it sweet, that's fine but it is possible to reduce it at least to a 1/2 cup. Everyone enjoyed it!

Delicious. Less like a bar and tastes more like a cranberry dump cake. Serve ice cream over the top. The tart and the sweet combine perfectly!

This was a great and tasty way to use up my leftover cranberry sauce from Thanksgiving dinner. Amazingly, I didn't have a yellow cake mix in the house but I did have lemon--and that turned out very well--would definitely make again! Brought it in to work and it was gobbled and lots of requests for the recipe.

Cut back on sugar as per other suggestions. Found this recipe to be a little too much "cake-like". Thought that it would have more of an oat texture (similar to date squares). Flavour of cranberry sauce was good.

These were just okay for me. The flavors were good and the cranberry mixture smelled and tasted wonderful, but they were crumbly even after leaving them in the pan for a couple of hours. My cake mixture was very moist and gooey. There was no way I was going to be able to "press" them into the pan. Might be because I used instant oats, but not sure. Not sure the flavor was good enough to warrant another try.
