What’s Christmas dinner without chipolatas. I want to enjoy a traditional Christmas dinner without the cruelty. I’ve already created the alternatives to the fish starter (Mock Salmon Parcels) the rest of the family eat – now it’s the turn of the chipolata.

This is Christmas in a cookie. We’ve already had Christmas in a burger so I had to balance it with pudding. Crisp on the outside, soft and crumbly on the inside, these are rich and packed with flavours.
