I loved this recipie, only I cooked the cranberries before adding them to the salad, made it a little sweeter and easier for my kids to eat

I followed this recipe exactly and it was fabulous! Everyone LOVED it and ate it all up. It was so delicious. I actually froze mine and let it thaw while sitting out and it still tasted great.

I don't know if this is the exact recipe that I got from my great aunt Jenny, can't find that one, but it sounds pretty darn close. It is my all time favorite holiday dish. My mom being a real traditionalist wouldn't make it for a summer picnic when I was young until I begged. It took her a while to forgive me for that but it was well worth it.....everybody said so!! We are making it again this Thanksgiving after a long repreive and it is sure to be a hit with the new family members.

WOW! this cranberry salad has been a staple at Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners in my family since way before I was born. It was my Grammas specialty. I was under the impression that it was her creation. Im floored but glad to see the recipe on here cause it has never been written down, and she is no longer with us so I cant call her when I need help..THANK YOU for posting this.

My family really enjoys this salad. I always half it, because it makes a ton. I like to add 1 chopped apple to the halved recipe. It freezes really well - my dad likes to eat it right out of the freezer.

I add the drained pineapple with the sugar and cranberries and then add the marshmallows and let this sit overnight. Also, I do not add the whipped cream until right before serving this dish. Cool Whip is also good to use in place of whipped cream if you're trying to watch the fat grams. This is beautiful served in a crystal bowl.

I served ths with Christmas dinner and it was a hit with the women of the family. I modified the recipe a bit: substituted Splenda for sugar, omitted the nuts, and substituted Cool Whip Lite for the whipping cream.

Just wanted to warn others that when eating a cranberry salad, you must be careful not to eat or drink anything that is sweeter. I remember drinking sweetened iced tea with my mom's version of this salad (Cranberry Fluff Salad) and the salad tasting extremely bitter. I imagine that is why at least one reviewer thought that adding extra sugar did not help.

I added another cup of sugar, and a tub of whipped cream- and it still was awful and WAY too much of a tart cranberry taste. We've been making jokes about it ever since. And I like cranberries!

This is a very good side dish, almost like a fluffy ambrosia (we've nicknamed it "Fluff de Cranberry"). Took it to Thanksgiving dinner and most people had it with dessert, so I wouldn't say it replaces cranberry sauce at the dinner table. It's a pretty pink color but the marshmallows make it more of a kid-friendly dish (not a bad thing). To make it a little more elegant, I might try eliminating them, adding more sugar, then serving in wine glasses with a mint sprig.

This was not one we cared for. The kids refused to more than taste it. I was the only one who ate any of it but it was mainly just so it would go to waste. I only made a half batch. I really liked the marshmallows in it, but it is a salad that sould be eaten soon after preparation. Doesn't stay well in the fridge. Thanks anyway,

I've tried Cranberry Salad 1 and Christmas Cranberry Salad as written, then I experimented to our liking.I wound up using 2 1lb pkgs cranberry, 2 cups sugar, about 3/4 of 20 oz can crushed pineapple,and no marshmallows-everything else the same. This was still sweet, but the sugar and pineapple didnt overpower the cranberry flavor. This is so good, definitely give it a try.
