Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 3 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup prepared mincemeat
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup eggnog
• 0.75 cup powdered sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually stir in the mincemeat until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 8

While the cake cools, prepare the eggnog topping. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Add the eggnog and powdered sugar to the whipped cream and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.

Step 10

Spread the creamy eggnog topping evenly over the cooled cake.

Step 11

Sprinkle a light dusting of ground nutmeg on top of the eggnog topping for garnish.

Step 12

Slice and serve the cake. Enjoy!
