Gingerbread Cake
Mix together till resembles wet sand
2 1/3 cups flour
3 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt (or just 1tsp of regular table salt)
3/4 cup of sugar
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 cup molasses
Then whisk in
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup boiling water
Pour into greased and floured 9x13 baking pan and bake at 350 degrees till done in the center. (Poke with a toothpick; if it comes out clean it's done).
Pour the Glaze on while still hot letting the lemony goodness ooze down the sides. (A pastry brush is particularly helpful for spreading here)
Resist the temptation to eat it out of the pan hot. Patience.
Serve with fresh whipped cream and lemon zest (if you are feeling fancy)
