Glazed Pearl Onions in Port With Bay Leaves

"These pearl onions taste like candy! I've been making this recipe for years, usually only for the holiday season 'cause of the prep time. Although I hear you can use peeled frozen pearl onions to make prep faster. Make them a couple days ahead of time for a better taste."
