THE BEST CRANBERRY SALAD!

Steps:

• Mince cranberries with a hand-blender, food-processor, or some kind of chopper.
• I use my Braun hand-blender, and the little cup it came with, which is used to chop things really small (rather than pureeing them, which the blender would probably do, if I used it without the cup).
• But you only fill it a 1/4 to a 1/2 full each time, or they won't be minced properly.
• (cranberries may be prepared up to 3 days in advance) In a bowl, mix the first four ingredients, and refrigerate for at least one hour, best if overnight.
• In the morning, or shortly before serving, whip the whipping cream until it peaks.
• Set aside.
• Add the marshmallows to the cranberry mixture, until thoroughly incorporated into the mix.
• Then slowly fold in the whipped cream, until it's completely mixed.
• Refrigerate until serving.

Using hands, add paste to flour/shortening mixture and work it just enough for paste to cover everything - don't work it too much. Roll out dough, and then roll onto pin to transfer to pie tin.
