Steamed Cranberry Pudding With Butter Sauce

• 1/3 cup of water
• 1 tablespoon baking soda
• 2 cups (8 ounces) cranberries, chopped
• 1/2 cup molasses
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1/2 cup half-and-half cream

1. In a bowl, combine water and baking soda. Immediately add remaining pudding ingredients; mix well. Pour batter into a well-greased 1-qt. pudding mold. (If you don't have a pudding mold, use an ovenproof bowl and cover tightly with foil.) Put a rack in the bottom of a stockpot. Place pudding mold or bowl on rack. Add boiling water to 1-in. depth. Cover stockpot and boil gently, replacing water as needed. Steam 1 hour or until cake tests done. Cool for 10 minutes; unmold.
2. For sauce, heat all ingredients in a saucepan until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved. Serve pudding and sauce warm.
