The flaky crust combined with a rich center makes these little tarts a satisfying snack to serve and eat. They look so appealing on a pretty platter and make a great finger-food dessert when you're entertaining. They also freeze well. -Jean Rhodes, Tignall, Georgia

Cranberry Cherry Pie

This is my favorite recipe to make for the holidays. It tastes too good to be this easy. Don't make your own dough? Just use dough mix or refrigerated crusts - it tastes just as delicious. Originally submitted to ThanksgivingRecipe.com. 

Mincemeat II

Submitted by: Linda C.
I have used this for years. If you are a connoisseur of mincemeat, you will be able to tell this is a good recipe while you are cooking it, and you add the spices to the fruit, and it magically changes to that wonderful aroma of....mincemeat! If you want to, you can omit the meat in this recipe. I prefer peach or apricot brandy for this recipe. If desired you can use half beef and half pork rather than all pork.
