Mincemeat Upside Down Cake (Simplified) image

Although I'd previously posted a similar recipe, this one uses a store-bought cake mix, considerably simplifying the baking process! The recipe was found in the 1952 cookbook(let) 21 "NONE SUCH" Mince Meat Recipes for Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall (The title's longer than the booklet!), one of the cookbooks my great partner sent me in the current Cookbook Swap!

27 ounces none such classic original mincemeat

3 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 (16 ounce) candied cherries (1-8 oz. red and 1-8 oz. green each)
1 (16 ounce) candied pineapple

(I cook to 1 hour 10 minutes then start testing every 10 minutes until cake tests for doneness. If it's over baked it will be dry, otherwise the cake will come out perfectly moist. Be diligent with your testing.).
