I posted this as a comment in response to a request for recipes including molasses and thought I'd post it here, too, since it is one of my all-time favorite recipes and perfect for this cozy time of year. [Note: I often double this recipe, using a 13x9 pan]
This is an incredibly good recipe I got from
pameladean
Molasses Gingerbread
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup dark molasses
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 TB ground ginger
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda, dissolved in 2 TB hot water
3/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup granulated sugar to sprinkle on top of batter
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease and lightly flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
Combine the butter and molasses in a large mixing bowl and beat until well mixed. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, ginger, cinnamon, coriander, and salt, stirring with a fork to blend. Stire into the butter mixture. Beat well. Add the baking soda dissolved in water, stir and blend. Beat in the cold water and mix well. Spoon into the pan and sprinkle the sugar on top. Bake for about 20 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Makes one 8x8 inch pan.
