I used this one minus the expresso powder. They would probably be very good with it, but that would detract from the nostalgia.
Let me know how it comes out please. Mom used to buy a cube of something and mixed it with brown sugar and raisins to make a wonderful meatless mincemeat pie. I’m still irritated that she didn’t offer me her old cookbooks before she got rid of them 10 or 15 years ago but of course I don’t say anything to her about it.
