Notes: Found this recipe in an old cookbook of Alex's and thought it would be a good gift for Aunt Susan as she and I are the only ones who really enjoy mincemeat.
Since it only calls for a cup we splurged on the pre-made mincemeat that had fruit as the first ingredient and I think that was a good decision.
Recipe was a hit and this might replace one of the other cookie recipes for baking day 2024
