We used this Rudolph Mincemeat Cup Cake Recipe last week. This is a great way to use up any left over mincemeat from the Christmas cake or pudding. The mincemeat makes the cupcakes have a more festive taste without being as rich as a whole mince pie or fruit cake – so perfect for children. The twiglets are just decoration though as they don’t taste particularly nice with the cake.

You Will Need
For the cake
- 4oz butter
- 4oz caster sugar
- 4oz self raising flour
- 2 eggs
- 5oz mincemeat
For the decoration
- butter icing
- brown food colouring
- Twiglets
- Mini marshmallows
- Black icing
- Glace cherry

Method
- Preheat oven to 180/ Gas mark 4
- Mix all the cake ingredients until smooth. Bake the cakes for 20 mins.
- Once cooled, decorate using the butter icing.
- Add twiglets for antlers
- Add a cherry for the nose
- Put dots using the black icing in the middle of the marshmallows for the eyes
