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.

DublinTown Christmas Lights Switch On At Bewley’s Grafton Street 🤶 🎅

DublinTown Christmas Lights Switch On At Bewley’s Grafton Street

It’s beginning to look a lot like the festive season following the big switch on of the stunning Grafton Street Christmas lights at Bewley’s Grafton Street on Thursday November 16th.

Erected by city centre business group Dublin Town, they were turned on by Little Blue Heroes Foundation representatives Willow Mae Carroll, seven, from Kells, Co Meath, and Cian Byrne, 10, from Finglas West, Dublin, who pushed the magic button.

The Foundation is a Garda charity supporting families of children with serious illnesses, while empowering the lives of young people through positive community engagement.

With only 34 days remaining to December 25, the switching on of the spectacular Grafton Street chandeliers, precedes the turning on of lights at Henry Street, South William Street, Capel Street and throughout the city centre.

In total, Dublin Town, which has been decorating the city centre at Christmas on behalf of businesses for 15 years, will provide energy-efficient Christmas lights across 25 streets in the city centre this year.

It takes 30 people, working through the night over four weeks, to erect the lights. All lighting used is low-energy LED, regulated by time clocks. The Grafton Street display uses one third of the electricity of a domestic shower. Every single bulb and fixture is tested by Dublin Town’s lighting contractor in advance of going up.

Bewley’s Grafton Street is delighted to partner with DublinTown as the venue for the Christmas Lights switch on and hope everyone gets to enjoy the sparkle over the upcoming festive season.
