Chocolate Brownie Mince Pies
Christmas just got even better with this brownie mince pies recipe. They’re tasty, rich and decadent! Here’s how I make them!
If you love mince pies (minus the mincemeat filling), then what I have for you is going to blow your mind! Picture this… shortcrust pastry mince pies but with a fudgy brownie centre.
They are PERFECT for Christmas and are so cute to decorate too. I chose a star topping, but you can use any Christmas cut-out shape that you like, or you can leave them plain.
The base is so buttery, and I’ve developed the filling to be fudgy, chocolatey and irresistibly rich. The only thing better than these brownie mince pies is Bailey’s hot chocolate served on the side!
Recipe Ingredients
Below are the ingredients I used:
- Brownie Batter: I create a fudgy brownie from plain flour, butter, caster sugar, light brown sugar, dark chocolate, cocoa powder, eggs, vanilla extract and salt.
- Sweet Shortcrust Pastry: To make the pastry, I mix together plain flour, butter, icing sugar and a little bit of milk or water. Instead of icing sugar, you can use caster sugar. I used a food processor to blitz everything together, but you can make the pastry by hand.
I use the same sweet shortcrust pastry to make these classic mincemeat mince pies. However, if you want another twist, use puff pastry like these puff pastry mince pies.
