Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mixed dried fruit
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp mixed spice
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar for icing

Method
 

  1. Cream the butter and brown sugar, then beat in the eggs one at a time.
  2. Fold in the flour, mixed spice, and dried fruit until just combined.
  3. Spoon the batter into a greased mini muffin tin.
  4. Bake at 350F for 22 to 25 minutes until risen and set, then cool completely.
  5. Mix the powdered sugar with a splash of water and drizzle over each pudding to look like snow.

Notes

A tiny piece of green icing or a single mint leaf on top makes the holly detail.
