Neven’s Christmas in Limerick airs on Thursday, 11 December, on RTÉ One at 8pm.

Ingredients

Makes 12

· 320g Ready Rolled Puff pastry

· 220g Mincemeat

· 1 tbsp Ground Cinnamon

· 1 Egg Yolk mixed with 1 tbsp Milk

· 25g Butter


For The Vanilla Frost Dip

· 100g Cream Cheese

· 75g Icing Sugar

· 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

· 1 tbsp Cream

· Good Pinch Sea salt

Method

  1. Preheat to 180°C (350°F/Gas Mark 4).
  2. Unroll the puff pastry on a clean work surface, with the long edge on the top and bottom. Carefully spread the mincemeat all over the surface, leaving a 1cm edge all round. Dust over the ground cinnamon.
  3. Carefully begin to roll the pastry to create a long log. Using a sharp knife, cut into 12, roughly 3cm thick each.
  4. Melt the butter in a small pan or in the microwave and use to brush the holes of the muffin tin generously. Place the cut pastry swirls into each of the muffin holes, then brush with the beaten egg mixture.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes until golden. Gently remove from the tin immediately to a cooling rack, and allow to cool.


For The Vanilla Frost Dip

  1. Place the cream cheese in a bowl and whisk using a handheld blender for 1-2 minutes until smooth. Sift in the icing sugar followed by the vanilla extract, cream and salt. Whisk again for another few minutes until light and fluffy.
  2. Serve the mincemeat swirls warm or at room temperature with the vanilla frost dip in small bowls alongside.
