Instructions: Preheat the oven to 220c/425f/Gas 7.

1 Use a small cutter to cut out three stars from the pastry, top each with 1 tsp mincemeat and brush a little beaten egg around the edge.

2 Cut out three slightly larger stars from the pastry, place on top of the mincemeat and seal the edges. Place on a greased baking sheet and cook in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.

3 Cut out two strips from the remaining pastry and place on a greased baking sheet. Cut out small Christmas trees and snowmen from the rest of the pastry, add to the baking sheet and brush all with beaten egg.

4 Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up. Heat the cranberries in a pan with the juice of 1 orange and 2 tbsp caster sugar and cook until the cranberries burst and soften.

5 Stir in 1 tsp brandy, use a slotted spoon to remove half the cranberries and reserve. Mix the remaining cranberries and juice with the Greek yoghurt, serve in a tall glass and top with a pastry star.

6 For the Brandy Butter: Place the butter and icing sugar in a mini food processor with 1 tsp brandy and blitz until smooth. Separate two clementines into segments.

7 Cut horizontally through the cooked pastry strips and place the bottom two pieces on a plate. Spread over some mincemeat, followed by the reserved cranberries and clementine segments.

8 Replace the top pieces of pastry and serve with the pastry shapes and brandy butter.

9 Heat 55g/2oz caster sugar in a pan with juice 1/2 orange, remaining brandy and 300ml/ 1/2 pint water until the sugar has dissolved and turned golden brown.

10 Place five peeled clementines in a tall heatproof glass and pour over the syrup. Decorate with a mint sprig and serve with the whipped cream.

11 For the Mulled Wine: Heat the red wine in a pan with the cinnamon, allspice, ginger, bayleaf, cardamom pods and cloves.

12 Remove the zest of 1 orange using a potato peeler and add to the pan. Heat gently for about 5-10 minutes and pour into heatproof glasses to serve.
