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.
