Ingredients
Scale

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions

- Add the sliced jalapeños, cranberries, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cayenne pepper.
- Reduce heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly.

Notes
For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the jalapeños. This Cowboy Candy tastes even better after a couple of days in the fridge.
