Mince Pie Cupcakes-Almond cupcakes with a lively centre and minced meat topped with brandy buttercream.

Christmas seems to come very fast now (too fast, I still have so many Christmas recipe ideas and no time to share them all!). I am happy to say that I finally finished Christmas shopping which is a great help. Thank goodness for next-day shipping if not I will have a few relatives empty-handed on Christmas morning.

Wrappers next to me, but I wanted to share this festive cupcakes with you first before I get out paper and scissors with a glass of something that is lively and Christmas movies (it is possible that I am using this as an excuse for writing delaying the bundle as it is not my favourite job 🙂).
