I Love fruit mince tarts. I have a soft spot for them. As soon as they hit the shops they hit my trolley!
And as they have egg in them I am the only one in the house enjoying them.
My friends mum Jenny was making her own batch and telling me about them and I was eagerly listening to her explain the receipe as I have always wanted to make my own but thought they would be tricky (tricky actually translates to hard work, lengthy process!)
Well it just turns out that she had made too much filling and could spare a jar (you had to start soaking the filling a few weeks ago) and I of course snapped it up.
So lovely of her
Jenny gave me a receipe for a fruit mince slice which is easy but I really wanted to make the tarts. I used a pastry receipe from a Donna Hay magazine for a blueberry tart - thought it would be the same - and just sprinkled with icing sugar when they came out of the oven.
They sure looked good. They are not as soft as the packet ones but I am so proud I made them.
Mum has had one and there are 3 left, so I have had...........
