How to Make Cranberry Pineapple Frozen Dessert

In a large bowl, combine 1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple (undrained), 1 (12 ounce) bag fresh or frozen cranberries, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gently stir until the sugar is mostly dissolved and the cranberries are evenly distributed.
Pour the mixture into a 13 x 9 x 2-inch dish (or a similar sized freezer-safe container).
Cover tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap.
Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid. For best results, freeze overnight.
Let the dessert sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes before scooping and serving to allow for easier scooping.
