I use the trex recipe every year I add zest of an orange to it
I freeze the uncooked mince pies and cook as many as is needed straight from the freezer
they are gorgeous have my h/m mincemeat too this year0 -
I'm just about to make about 100 of these to sell at our playgroup Christmas do. They always go down well.Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.

I don't make them any more, but if I did, I'd use half-and-half butter and lard. Rub into flour using finger-tips, add cold water very gradually, wrap in cling-film and put into fridge to 'rest' before rolling out on to a floured board. Bake in a hot oven.[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Æ[/FONT]r ic wisdom funde, [FONT=Times New Roman, serif]æ[/FONT]r wear[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]ð[/FONT] ic eald.

I used this for my mince pies yesterday but didn't have any trex so used butter but they turned out fantastic! Thanks
I've always had trouble in the past so it's great to find a recipe which I know I can come back to 0 -
It is with great sadness that I must tell you that the lovely lady who gave us her recipe is no longer with us. However, I know that her mince pies will continue to be enjoyed for years to come. RIP my lovely neighbour and friend.

What a coincidence - I only searched out this recipe to use this morning.
I hope your friend knew how much her mince pies were appreciated and am sorry for your (and her families) loss.Note to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!

RIP to your lovely neighbour researcher.Money, money, money, must be funny....in a rich mans world.
