Simply delicious Cranberry Christmas Sheet Cake is moist rich and filled with tasty tart cranberries that are perfect for a get together, family gathering or on any occasion. Send seasonally inviting aromas throughout a warm kitchen when you bake this mouthwatering tummy pleaser. I love this cake fresh made but also look froward to a morning cup of coffee in my left hand and one of these goodies in my right. The only problem with this cake will be how long it is available to eat because your family will gobble it down faster than you can bake it up. My family absolutely loves this cake and we hope you decide to give this a try to see for yourself just how delicious this seasonal cake really are.

In a large bowl: combine the unsalted butter and sugar then beat.

Then add eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Add warm milk, vanilla extract and mix everything together until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder and salt then mix until smooth.

Highly recommend that you sift the dry ingredients before mixing them into the wet ingredients. This will form a smoother batter and the cake will be very soft & fluffy.

Add in fresh cranberries (using frozen cranberries: do not let them thaw. Mix them in while still frozen).

Then gently fold the batter until the cranberries are evenly distributed throughout the batter (do not over mix or use a mixer for this step, be gentle use wooden spatula). Transfer the batter to the loaf pan.

Bake for 40-50 minutes (it took me 45 min) or until a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and rest the cake in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a baking rack. Cool for 15 minutes at room temperature prior to serving.

Garnish with powdered sugar. Serve & enjoy!
