Empty cake mix into large bowl. Add egg mixture and mincemeat. Add alcohol if desired. Mix thoroughly using mixer or by hand. Pour into 9x13 cake pan. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out fairly clean (do not over bake- mincemeat keeps cake moist so use discretion). Let cool for 30 minutes and remove from pan. Frost and serve.
Cream the butter, orange rind and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light. Beat in the sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Blend in the mincemeat. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the nuts.
Mary Berry’s Mincemeat Loaf Cake is an perfect easy, one bowl bake – and it’s a perfect recipe for using up that half empty jar of mincemeat. You can’t go wrong with a Mary Berry recipe and this one is a real classic. I make these mincemeat loaf cakes every Christmas to give as gifts and they always go down really well.
