 I expect EACH and EVERY one of you to make this. Actually my friend Betty did and
this is the recipe she used from JOY OF COOKING. It is delicious...  Cook the
ingredients SLOWLY for 2 hours.  Prepare your favorite pie shells (for 2 crust
pie) and heap with mincemeat; flavor w/ more brandy of course and bake at 450
degrees for about 30 minutes.  NOTE:  I set the ingredients to 20 the recipe for
the mincemeat (20 pies) but you can reformat for 1; and 1 pie.
