1 of my many weaknesses , I couldn't help myself.....they were there piled high , tempting me ....and no Gabi to put a stop to my annual craving. ...2 packets found their way home with me, lids prized off , filled with brandy and cream ......my first mince pies of the season .

[happygolucky]

I only like them out of season, buy Christmas I have had enough of them!!  we all have weaknesses, ONE of mine is Tunnocks Tea cakes, they are so yummy but I always eat too many!

[Lesley Silvester]

I have to admit that I don't much like mince pies.

[john and helen]

i like my mince pies with a hurt big dollop of clotted cream on top...pie needs to be hot 

[Bionic]

Don't worry. We won't tell Gabi 

[mab]

I don't like 'em either - but I can't resist the chocolates that're on offer at this time of year (or any other time of year for that matter).

[happygolucky]

mab I had to virtually run past the 2 for one deal on tins of Quality street and Roses.......so dangerouse to me

[Rosemary]

I love good chocolate but Quality Street, Roses, Heroes etc leave me cold. Too sweet and sickly.

I love homemade mincemeat and pies made with puff pastry rather than shortcrust, which I find a bit claggy.

[happygolucky]

If you get any "spare" Roses or Quality Street, you know where I am  .......funny as I am not a chocolate fan as it gives me bad migraines'....try not to buy them for that very reason

Recently had a box of Ecclefechan tarts (Walkers brand) - absolutely yummy - and a nice alternative to Mince Pies

Yep, hot mince pie with Brandy cream Yum

[Dan]

Mmmm, pie. 

[Bramblecot]

Have you tried the 'new' version of Co-Op profiteroles (with alcohol)

[bloomer]

yuck


mincemeat is nasty...


can i have a real pie instead i like apple!!!

[Factotum]

Oh no - Apple pie, with cinnamon, and a sweet shortcrust pastry, made extra crunchy from a goodly sprinkle of demerara sugar, with whipped double cream...

Shame OH doesn't do 'sweet' - he's definitely a savoury man! He'd rather have a steak and kidney pie with rough puff any day.
