So here is the latest of the Christmas baking.
I used a different one to the usual which has ground almonds I the pastry and used this pastry recipe and the mincemeat that my Dad had made:

I topped some with pastry bells- using the gift from my Christmas dinner cracker! These ones have a disc of marzipan underneath the mincemeat.
