Cranberry Snaps

   This is a great little sweet treat for the holidays.

    2  cups frozen cranberries
 1/2  cup water
 1/3  cup dark rum
 1/2  cup honey
Grated zest of 1 large lime
  24  ginger snaps
 1/2  cup whipped cream cheese

   Combine cranberries, water, rum and honey in small heavy saucepan.  Bring to boil until berries pop, then reduce heat and cook, stirring often, until mixture starts to thicken and turn smooth.  Cool, then stir in lime.

   Chill completely.

   Just before service, spread each ginger snap with 1 tsp cream cheese.  Top with a heaping tsp of cranberry mixture.
