If a candle company could incorporate the aroma that this delicious gingerbread gave off as it was in the oven, they would instantly make a ton of money. I do not think the house ever smelled this good. That alone should be enough incentive to cook this delicious, old-fashioned and simple bread during Christmastime.
What's Inside:
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
1 cup molasses
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1 cup hot water
Your arteries will thank you...
Substitute a 0 trans-fat butter substitute or margarine for the butter
How to make it:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 inch square pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the egg, and mix in the molasses.
3. In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Blend into the creamed mixture. Stir in the hot water. Pour into the prepared pan.
4. Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan before serving.
