Makes 16 servings

Dough
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Filling
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup dried cranberries
1 cup finely chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and set aside.

Combine flour, sugar and butter in a food processor. Process until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add water and vanilla extract; pulse again. Press dough into prepared pan and freeze for 15 minutes. Bake dough for 15 minutes, until golden.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine whipping cream, brown sugar and honey. Bring to a boil and continue boiling for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in cranberries and chopped pecans. Spoon filling over crust, spreading evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbling. Remove from oven and cool completely on wire rack.

Cut into 16 squares.
