Jemma's Classic Christmas Mince Pie Recipe | Cupcake Jemma

Seriously though how have we not managed to get you a Mince Pie recipe in the 7 years we've been doing this??? Better later than never hey?! And to be honest its given us 7 years to perfect this Mince Pie recipe with its orange, spiced shortcrust pastry and home made mincemeat. To us, nothing says Christmas vibes better than a warm mince pie (and possibly a hot Mulled Wine ;) )
