Steps:
- For meatballs:.
- Combine eggs, soup mix, cranberries, bread crumbs and parsley in bowl. Crumble in ground beef. Mix. Shape into 1-inch balls. Arrange 12 to 14 meatballs on microwave-safe plate.
- Cover with waxed paper. Cook on high for 3 to 4 minutes, or until no longer pink. Remove to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining meatballs.
- For sauce:.
- Combine cranberry sauce, broth, brown sugar, ketschup, onions and cider vinegar in microwave-safe 2 quart dish. Cover and cook on high for 3 to 4 minutes, rotating once.
- Gently stir in meatballs. Cover and cook on high for 1 to 2 minutes, or until heated through.
- Note: I'm just not wild about cooking meat in the microwave -- so I prefer to do these the old fashioned way. I have good luck with placing the formed meatballs on a rimmed baking sheet and placing them in the oven set at 350 for about 10 minutes -- just until they firm up. I them add them to a saucepan on the stove that I have made the sauce in and let them simmer on low heat until they are cooked through.

Steps:
- Saute onions in 3 T. butter. Let cool a bit and lightly mix the meat, onions, bread crumbs, eggs, 1 1/2 cups of the cream. salt, pepper, nutmeg and parsley. Form into meatballs, about the size of a small walnut, place on cookie trays, and bake at 375 for 20-25 mn.
- Put in two casseroles, and make the cream gravy.
- Melt the 1/4 cup butter in a large, heavy saucepan Add the 1/4 cup flour, a touch more salt and pepper, cook for at least one minute. Do not brown. Gradually add the remaining cream, stirring continuously, until thickened. I like to add some Kitchen Bouquet for more flavor and some color at this point.
- Pour over the meatballs.
- Note: At this point, we generally freeze them and then defrost and bake for an hour or so on Christmas, as this recipe makes a lot of meatballs, so it is time consuming and who wants to do all that on the day of, right?.
- Also, you can freeze the cooked meatballs alone, and make the gravy later and pour it over the meatballs right before you bake them.
