Reviews

Absolutely horrible! Worse than store bought cookies. Too much sugar, too many eggs, too much butter, not enough mincemeat. Do not cook at 400. The dough is sticky, cookies come out flat, over browned and taste like sugar and flour. I threw in a couple handfuls each of dried cranberries and chopped walnuts to save the dough. Lowered temp to 375. Still has an odd flavor to it. What a waste of an expensive jar of gourmet mincemeat from Vermont.

My mother and I made these cookies when I was little, many years ago, using the box of dry mincemeat. I have looked for years for the recipe, they are the best cookies ever!!!

I have been making these cookies for years. I got the recipe off the large Mincemeat Jar. I add crushed walnuts and frost them with carmel icing. Men love these cookies.
