Guest guest Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Midwinter Gingerbread 1/2 stick butter 1/2 cup molasses 1 large egg 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 cup all purpose flour 2 tsp cinnamon 2 tsp ginger 1/4 tsp cloves 1/4 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup boiling water 1/2 cup orange marmalade or apricot jam 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts In small saucepan, melt the butter and molasses then set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine egg and brown sugar and beat well. Pour in the melted butter/molasses mixture and beat with electric mixer. Then by hand stir in flour, spices and salt just enough to mix all together. Add baking soda to the boiling water and stir well. Pour this mixture into the batter and gently mix. Add marmalade and pecans and stir until just mixed. Pour into a lightly greased 9x9 pan. Bake for about 30 minutes in a preheated 350 degree oven. Gingerbread is ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and invert onto a plate. Serve dusted with powdered sugar or topped with whipped cream.
