Excess Christmas pudding - can I use to make mince pies?

[dairymoo]

I have made far too much Christmas pudding (have already got a 3 pint one on the go!) and was wondering whether I can use the leftover mixture for mince pies?

The recipe I used is just sultanas/raisins/currants/orange & lemon peel/sugar/eggs and lots of booze so no flour to worry about.

Rachael Allen used hers to make christmas muffins they looked lovely, and I don't even like christmas pud

Rachael Allens Christmas Bake was on last night

you could put it inside puff pastry and make some christmassy puffs, but christmas muffins sounds nice

I make christmas pudding ice cream - mmmm yummy.

i have a nigella recipie for xmas pud truffles which is basically choc, booze, xmas pud and golden syrup. i can dig out the recipe if you want.

you would have to cook the pudding first tho

Like the idea of both muffins and truffles (sure I can find the recipes online). So is the consesus that I can'y use it to make mince pies? I really want to make some....

ill second the xmas pud ice cream or stuuf some baking apples with it and derve with lashings odf double cream or custard
