A Searcher's Cookbook - Not-so-Homemade, Homemade Mince Pies

A Searcher's Cookbook


Mince Pies! 



It's Christmas baking time! Actually, it's LATE MINUTE Christmas baking time!
Sure, there are still a few days left to bake, but who has time to properly bake some Christmas treats without too much fuss? 

Well, today I will walk you through how to make your very own homemade mince pies... 
but just between me and you, they aren't "entirely" homemade. 
[At the end of the post you can find a mincemeat filling recipe for those wanting to make their own!]

Now, the mince pie. It's a UK/Irish tradition! During the holiday season, you see wee mince pies everywhere you go! You can't get away from them! So, I decided to do a little research into this classic Christmas treat, and even tried to make my own! All you need to know, after the jump!
