Old Fashioned Molasses Cake
So Turkey Day is fast approaching and I know many of you have your menus done and you’re desserts planned already but I can’t help but share this delicious little cake with you now.
I love molasses. I love the smell of it and the taste of it. It instantly makes me think of Thanksgiving and Christmas.
This is the perfect little cake to whip up on a whim. It’s like the baby bear of cakes. Not too big, not too little, just right. All it requires is a few bowls and few minutes and you have a little cake to enjoy with a warm cuppa tea on a chilly afternoon. If you love gingerbread, you’ll love this!
I’ve been watching my sugar, so I used Stevia in place of the sugar and sugar free whipped topping. It tasted plenty sweet to me!
