Christmas leftover recipes

December 26, 2013 by Katie Bryson 2 Comments

Mince pies and Christmas pudding are often left lingering in the days between Christmas and New Year, so why not do something creative with them?

I’ve come up with a couple of ideas that are perfect for feeding guests popping in over the festive season…

Christmas Pudding Trifles

Boozy make-ahead dessert that’ll use up those pesky Christmas pudding leftovers in rather a lovely way. I’ve infused the custard with baileys for an extra indulgent layer of flavour. Make them in little glasses to give everyone a manageable portion, and pop a little sparkler in for a touch of magic.

Fridge cake that uses up leftover mince pies is the best use of mince pies i’ve ever tasted. It might sound a bit weird, but you have to believe me, you will try this recipe and LOVE it!!! It’s a festive combo of mince pies, nuts, orange zest and melted chocolate. It’s also ridiculously quick and easy and doesn’t require any baking, so is the perfect emergency cake recipe should you need one at the last minute!

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
