These traditional Christmas treats feature sweet mincemeat (actually dried fruits, spices, and sometimes brandy) encased in buttery pastry. Despite the name, modern mince pies contain no meat - the filling is rich with currants, sultanas, and warming spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. They're everywhere during December, often served warm with brandy butter or cream.
