7th December: Mince Pie Making

I made my first mince pies of this Christmas over the weekend and they went down a treat! I used my homemade mincemeat and barely made a dent in the first jar so I don't think I'll be running out of mincemeat anytime soon.

 

I decided to use different cutters to make my mince pie pastry lids and the stars were definitely my favourite. I did however put too much mincemeat in the pies and a lot bubbled over! Oh well, they were still tasty and sticky.

 

 

 

Once they had been baked and cooled I dusted them with some icing sugar. They were enjoyed by us all and Jack's parents yesterday, so I think I need to make some more this week!

 

 

 

Have a good week everyone!
