I had less than half the amount of molasses required, so used honey for the rest. It had a wonderful texture, didn’t crumble at all when cut, and everyone loved it. I used fresh nutmeg because I had it, and can’t imagine it could be better with a full cup of molasses, but I’m looking forward to trying it that way. I served it with a dab of lemon curd on top, just to gild the lily!

I doubled this recipe and it was extremely thin,,I thought man to cook this for 35 minutes there’s no way it will turn out right..well it came together like a champ and was off the chain good..For a guy I even amazed myself lol…delicious,,loved the history lesson also..Great job thanks for sharing !!

I think this is also a great way to get your kids involved in the kitchen while teaching them a little bit of history and “how things used to be” WAY before cell phones and TV! I hope you will do another post like this!

I love making gingerbread cookies and cake. It is very flavorful and with a dollop of whip cream is the best! It is great that you bake with your kids!

I’m seriously always so impressed by how you get your kids involved and it inspires me to do it more with my girls. Why do I find that so hard?! That little pic of you little one’s hands measuring the cinnamon?! Time for me to make this happen!
