As a British expat who will not be coming home for Christmas this year, I am faced with a sad lack of mince pie. These rich, buttery, hand-held cakes are a seasonal treat par excellence, deliciously hot from the oven, but almost as well snatched from the box in the cupboard and enjoyed after at night with a hot Toddy. At home, they are everywhere at this time of year. In North America, they are much more difficult to find.
