Mincemeat pie is a traditional favorite, enjoyed especially around the holidays. This version offers an extra rich taste experience.

Why try? It’s always nice to serve a classic dessert for the holidays, and the addition of the heavy cream only makes it more special.

Foodie Byte: You can make this pie in advance and freeze it to save time during the busy holidays.

Instead of pure cane sugar you can use Wilton’s Sprinkles White Sparkling Sugar.
