Fifty-eight Fifty-seven tiny mince pies (well, I had to try one!), each one barely a mouthful and therefore calorie-free, possibly.

The mincemeat comes from a jar, but the pastry recipe is from an old Sainsbury’s magazine and makes the BEST pastry for mince pies: slightly sweet and crumbly.

Now I just have to freeze them before Mr B comes home and wants to have his own taste sample.
