1 package refrigerated pie crust, 9-inch
1 (12-ounce) package fresh cranberries
1 1/4 cups sugar or honey
2 tablespoons flour
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups eggnog
3 eggs, well beaten

Have the package of pie crusts at room temperature before you start. Take the two crusts out of the package and work them together with your hands to form one ball. On a floured cutting board roll the dough out into one large circle. Try to get it at least 13-14 inches in diameter. Line a 10-inch Dutch oven with the crust, taking care not to break it as you fit it to the bottom and sides. Crimp the crust to the top of the DO. Pour the cranberries into the pie shell along with all but 1/4 cup of the sugar or honey. Set the 10-inch DO inside a Deep 12-inch DO with three brass canning rings on the bottom. Bake the crust and berries for about 15 minutes or until the crust just begins to brown with 12-14 briquets underneath and 25 on the lid.

While waiting for the crust to brown, cream the 1/4 cup sugar and flour with the cream cheese. Slowly add the eggnog while vigorously mixing with a wire whisk. To this, add the well beaten eggs and mix well again with the whisk. When the edge of the crust has lightly browned, pour the eggnog mixture on top of the cranberries. Continue baking for about 50 minutes or until filling sets. Serve well chilled!
