My friend Pat made this last Christmas and brought everyone a designer jar full. OMG it was so good. You could also give it as a gift in a dollar store plastic container and place a bright bow on top. She also served some at our Christmas dinner by putting it on top of a block of cream cheese and serving with Ritz crackers. I also think this cranberry chutney would be good mixed into a block of cream cheese and then spread on flour tortillas. Roll up the filled tortillas and cut into slices to make "pinwheels."
