    Ingredients

    • 1/2 c. Margerine, softened, (Granny used real butter)
    • 1/2 c. Sugar
    • 1 x Egg
    • 1 c. Molasses
    • 2 1/2 c. Flour
    • 1 1/2 tsp Soda
    • 1 tsp Cinnamon
    • 1 tsp Cloves
    • 1 tsp Ginger
    • 1 c. Warm water

    Directions

    1. It was my Appalachian Granny's recipe...with a couple of modifications. It calls for a 9x9 inch pan, but it really could use one just a little bigger.
    2. It took a while for it to get done, and the outside edge got a little tough.
    3. Cream butter. Gradually add in sugar, mixing well. Add in egg and molasses; mix well.
    4. Combine dry ingredients. Add in to the creamed mix alternately with warm water, beginning and ending with flour mix, and beating well after each addition.
    5. Pour batter into a greased/floured 9 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 min, or possibly till cake tests done. Frost, if you like, or possibly top with whipped cream or possibly cold whip.
    6. Note: Kenny and I like this with a really thin layer of apple butter on top....this one is rich and very moist.
