  Made a batch of these and they look delicious. Only half cooked as I thought I'd freeze (most of) them and finish cooking them when I'm ready to serve so they're nice and fresh. My problem is they seem to be coming apart round the edges even though I pinched the edges, so the mincemeat is coming out... Must have done something wrong. Maybe too big a dollop of mincemeat?? Nice alternative to traditional mince pies though and I like the sound of the sugar/cinammon coating.

  I made these using puff pastry, (didnt realise as the pastry was frozen and in a clear bag) they were great, my son said they were the best he had ever tasted. Will make again for sure.

  Very quick and easy. Cinnamon sugar tasted great on the outside.

  I used my Ravioli maker and it was quite easy to turn out these cookies. Although, they looked great, the taste was not what I had expected. Will make them again, but add some small chopped apples to the filling and roll in the Cinnamon Sugar BEFORE I bake them.

  Good quick version of mince pies! I advise not egging the outside as the sugar doesnt stick as well as without the egg wash!
