Ingredients
  

Cream Cheese Layer
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cranberry Layer
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Chambord liqueur
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 2 cups cranberries, fresh or frozen
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cup pecans, chopped

Instructions
 

Cream Cheese Layer
  • Beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla together until smooth. Then place the mixture into a 6 x 8-inch dish and smooth with a spoon. Place into the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour.
Cranberry Layer
  • Place the sugar, Chambord, orange juice, and cranberries in a medium-sized saucepan. Heat on medium heat and cook until the cranberries burst. Using a masher, tamp the berries to help break them. Cook for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Cool for a few minutes. Then move the mixture into the refrigerator to chill. The sauce will thicken as it cools.
  • After the cranberries chill, spoon them over the cold cream cheese layer and sprinkle pecans over the cranberry layer.
  • Serve with cinnamon pita chips or graham crackers.
