Diane's Mom's Kentucky Gingerbread
rec.food.baking/Diane (Boo)/2000
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup molasses
1 cup shortening -- melted
1 teaspoon cloves, ground
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 tablespoons hot water
2 cups flour
1 cup boiling water
Blend eggs, sugar and molasses, add melted shortening and spices. Beat till smooth. Dissolve soda in 2 Tbsp of hot water and stir in, sift flour into mixture, beat well. Add boiling water, beat again. Batter will be very thin. Pour into well greased 13 x 9" pan.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes
While cake is still hot sprinkle with lots of sugar.
For a real treat sometimes I make butter icing and add a good 1/2 cup of molasses for the frosting, this is really good.
