  I made these for a Practice meeting and they went down very well. I used walnuts instead of pistachios as I had them in and orange zest in place of lemon. I will definately make them again, they looked really pretty.

  I ended up having to make these 4 times last year as everyone loved them so much! My grandad had lost all sense of appetite & taste after an illness yet these have so much flavour that he loved them & wolfed them down! A massive hit in our household, so easy to make and will definately be making them again this year

  An absolute hit!! I used Walnuts in place of pecan nuts - after being told by several people they don't eat mince pies there wan't even a crumb left on the plate.

  I made this recipe several times last year and it's so delicious! Much better than traditional mince pies in my opinion. I plan to make it several times this Christmas as it goes down a treat with mulled wine (or at anytime!). Very simple to make as well. Yum!
