Mincemeat Cake
What to do:
Put all the ingredients into a bowl, except the mincemeat, and whisk with an electric mixer for about 2-3 minutes until well blended. I used a 17cm diameter bundt tin to bake it in but you could use a small round baking tin.
Grease the tin well with butter and put in about two thirds of the mixture. Make a little dent in the mixture with a back of a teaspoon and into this trough, carefully spoon in your mincemeat. Cover it with the rest of the cake mixture and bake in your bbq or oven - indirect heat about 160C - for about 40 minutes until cooked - when it is lightly coloured on top and the sponge is coming away from the edge of the tin. If baking in a domestic oven, cook for about 30 minutes fan assist. Insert a skewer into the sponge and if it comes out clean, it's cooked. (making an allowance for the mincemeat in the middle). Leave to cool and carefully invert the sponge onto a plate. Drizzle over the glaze icing and decorate as you like. Delicious with a festive tipple or a cup of tea. You could dust the cake with icing sugar and serve it with custard or cream.
