Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 cup whole berry cranberry sauce (from 16-oz. can)
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Dash hot pepper sauce
  • 3/4 cup (about 6 ounces) fat-free or light cream cheese spread (from 8-oz. container)
  • 35 water crackers

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oil in small saucepan over medium-low heat until hot. Add onion; cook 3 to 4 minutes or until softened, stirring frequently.
  • 2
    Add cranberry sauce, vinegar, pumpkin pie spice, thyme, pepper and hot pepper sauce; mix well. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook 10 to 12 minutes or until thickened and reduced slightly, stirring frequently. Cool 20 minutes. Cover; refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • 3
    Just before serving, spread about 1 teaspoon cream cheese spread on each cracker. Top each with about 1 1/2 teaspoons cranberry mixture. If desired, garnish each with fresh thyme.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Using canned whole cranberry sauce instead of fresh cranberries considerably speeds up cooking.
  • tip 2
    In a hurry? Thickly spread cream cheese onto a pretty serving plate, spoon the chutney over it and arrange the crackers around it.
  • tip 3
    Try this tasty chutney with roast chicken, turkey or pork; it's also nice inside meat and poultry sandwiches.
