Dec.2008 ...I don't like mincemeat find it too spicy and rich tasting. I usually when making tarts add a small can crushed pineapple. But I found myself licking the spoon a few times while filling my tart shells, this filling is really good. I did use orange juice in my filling not the liqueur. Everyone really liked these tarts, will continue to make this as my new recipe. Just an update Feb.2009 I did eat the last four tarts myself, yes they are really that good.
