E.T.
I always use the one in the Betty Crocker Cookbook.
2-1/3 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup molasses
3/4 cup hot water
1/2 cup shortening
1 egg
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp salt
Heat oven to 325. Grease and flour a 9x9x2 inch pan. Beat all ingredients on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping side of bowl constantly. Beat on medium speed 3 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan. Bake 50-55 minutes until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm.
There is a recipe for Butterscotch Pear Sauce with it in the Betty Crocker cookbook that you can serve with it, but we always just used whipped cream or Cool Whip. This is the only gingerbread recipe that I really like. I might have to make it this weekend!
