Holiday Mincemeat Cake with Eggnog Rum Sauce image

I wanted to start a new tradition with my family. I love mincemeat, and this cake is a way to share that enjoyment with my friends and family. Since I was a working mother, I also wanted to create a dessert that was convenient. I am now asked for the recipe every time I make it.

Overall, I thought this cake was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The eggnog rum sauce is a bit too boozy for my taste. I would recommend using less rum or omitting it altogether.

I found the cake to be a bit dry. I would recommend adding more moisture to the batter, such as milk or applesauce.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the batter.

The eggnog rum sauce is the perfect finishing touch to this cake. It's rich and creamy, with just the right amount of rum flavor.

I've made this cake several times now and it always turns out perfect. It's a great way to use up leftover mincemeat.
