[@maeflorogario3733]

Geoff you are spoiling your viewers. Thank you🥰🥰🥰

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Maeflor Ogario. Everyone needs to be spoiled from time to time. LOL.

These remind me of my aunts Congress tarts she always did jam instead of mincemeat... but at Christmas she would do mincemeat... So funny my MOTHER USED TO SAY "" "OH YOU KNOW YOUR AUNTIE PHYLLIS SHE'S ALWAYS GOT TO BE DIFFERENT" "" SHAKING HER HEAD and tutting as she said it.... BUT I THOUGHT THEY WERE WONDERFUL,,, I GUESS YOU COULD SAY SHE. WAS AHEAD OF HER TIME,,, AS THIS WAS BACK IN THE LATE 1950S so great memory again for me 🧒 🎅🎄🤶 Geoff. I will make these for sure.... Hope you are well 🍂🍁🍂🍁💞

Hi Henrietta. Yes they are similar to Congress Tarts, but with mincemeat. I have a coconut & almond version on Congress Tarts on the channel, which are very good. In my experience aunties always had to be different.

@@geoffsbakingblog oh yes I'm a great aunt now and I intend to be very very different in my exentricties. (dot think that's spelt properly) 🤔lol

[@geoffsbakingblog]

@@henriettahenson Well that is one of a great-aunt's eccentricities, spelling it wrongly. LOL.

Delicious. I hope Mrs. Santa Claus sees this video because Jolly Old St. Nicolas will love eating these. Thanks for the video.

Just back from the shop with mincemeat in hand ready to make mince pies tomorrow. After watching your video I'll be putting a frangipane top on them. Great recipe as usual. Thanks Geoff 🙂

Hi Dovis - The Nail Station. Thanks. I hope you enjoy them.

[@jenneke9763]

I agree with Maeflor! I just so enjoy your meticulously demonstrated recipes! Every one I’ve made has turned out beautifully. I appreciate those slightly ‘different’ recipes you provide. This one is going to be added to my Christmas baking list! One of the many with your special stamp.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Jenneke. How nice of you to say so. I do hope you have a great time baking some lovely treats for Christmas.

Hi Marie. Thanks very much. I do hope you try them, and enjoy them.

[@janicegame2372]

Dear Geoff, to watch your face when you taste the frangipani mince was sublime!! I love all of your recipes and the care and detail you give,I am a bit of a perfectionist and I guess you are too! I will sit here and watch every move you make, now I do not do that with all posts I watch but I know it is worth staying to the end Bravo and a very nice christmas😊well done❤

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Janice. Thanks very much. I am pleased that you like to watch the videos all the way to the end. I do tend to fixate on things, like scraping every last morsel from a bowl. I hope you have a most enjoyable Christmas too.

[@cozicoops]

They look wonderful.. we’re you ever a professional chef/ baker? Your work is always so neat and you explain it so well.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Cozicoops. Thanks very much. I never worked in catering in any form. I started to bake as a hobby in 2014. I am glad you think I explain things well.

[@delilahboa]

These look gorgeous Geoff, I’m going to make some for sure, thanks you’re the best xx❤xx

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Delelahboa. I do hope you enjoy them.

[@delilahboa]

@@geoffsbakingblog I’m really looking forward to them…Thanks Geoff. XxXx

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Miss Dream. I am glad you enjoyed them enough to consider making them again.

Hi Geoff now that is a nice alternative to the usual mince pies ATB

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Stephen. Yes these are a good variation.

[@spiderbirdiespiderbidie1807]

A treat indeed. This looks scrumptious. Thank you for the recipe. Great job as always.

[@geoffsbakingblog]

Hi Spiderbirdie. Thanks very much.

[@grahamturner5963]

Beautiful recipe, Geoff. I have a (Mary Berry) family size frangipane recipe which I'll use on Christmas Day but these individual ones will do great in the meantime

[@geoffsbakingblog]

HI Graham. Thanks very much.

[@julie-joywilliams7280]
