Time 40m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
⅔ cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated orange zest
¼ cup ice water
¾ cup prepared mincemeat pie filling
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup confectioners' sugar for dusting

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Sift together the flour, 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, and cinnamon. Use a pastry cutter or two forks to mix in the butter until mixture resembles fine bread crumbs. Stir in the orange zest. Sprinkle with ice water, and gather dough into a ball. Roll out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick. Cut out approximately 18 (3 inch) diameter circles, and 18 (2 inch) circles, rerolling dough as needed.
Line muffin cups or tart tins using the 3 inch pastry circles. Fill each pastry cup with about 1 tablespoon of mincemeat filling. Top with 2 inch pastry circles, pinching circles together to seal the edges. Brush the top of each pie with egg.
Bake pies in preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly on wire racks. Dust with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar just before serving.

From christinascucina.com

You can follow the directions for this pie pastry tutorial. Cut the butter into the flour with two knives or a pastry cutter, then add the sugar and enough ice water, just so the pastry comes together without falling apart.
If you add too much water, the dough will be tough. If you are a more accomplished cook, you could add an egg yolk instead of the water, which yields an even tastier pastry.
Roll out the dough to about 1/4" and cut into rounds to place into cupcake tins or small tartlet tins.
