mincemeat streusel bread pudding

Submitted by Teresa L.

"You'll enjoy this even if you're not a mincemeat fan. I'm always looking for mincemeat recipes because my husband is a VERY big fan, I'm not, but I liked this one---it's not overpowering. I got this from a local paper and they say it's from a book called The Best Holidays Ever. I've never tried the jiffy custard sauce that accompanies it but I've included the recipe under that name."
