Just made this recipe to be part of a cheese plate. I used dried cherries instead of cranberries, since that was what I had on hand. I also added a little apple cider vinegar and then really cooked the onions down until they were soft. It turned out so good I'm going to have to make a larger batch soon! I'd say this is not a 3/5 difficulty- only a 1 or 2. Highly recommend.
This was delicious! Relatively easy to make, just takes time to get onions caramelized, but can be made ahead and reheated. Everyone I have sent this recipe to loves it. If you like caramelized onions you will LOVE this recipe.
