Cranberry Squares

My hubby isn't a huge fan of cranberries because they're too sour for him but I love them around the holidays. I made this a couple years ago for Thanksgiving and he loved it! The jello portion should be made the night before and the topping can be made the day of, but should be refrigerated at least an hour before serving.
