Steps:
- Lightly butter a 9 by 13 by 2-inch cake pan and line the bottom with a piece of parchment or wax paper. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar, molasses, and crystallized ginger. Add the eggs and whisk until smooth.
- In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, ground ginger, cinnamon, salt, and cloves. Whisk the molasses mixture into the flour mixture until evenly combined.
- In a small saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the baking soda. Whisk the hot water into the batter until just combined. Transfer the batter into the prepared pan. Bake the cake in the center of the oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack. Cut into squares and serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
SUGARPLUM GINGERBREAD CAKE
This deeply spiced gingerbread cake recipe comes from the cookbook author Genevieve Ko, who found inspiration in the light-as-air cakes she tasted from Chinese bakeries in Southern California, as well as the sweets - hot candied ginger and sugared, dried plums (a.k.a. prunes) - that her grandmothers offered her as a child. Ms. Ko's cake uses oil, not butter, which gives the crumb a fluffy, moist texture. The liquid base of rehydrated prunes brings sweetness along with depth of flavor.

Steps:
- Put the prunes along with 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until the fruit is very soft and starting to break down, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in molasses and baking soda, then set aside.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat to 350 degrees. Generously butter or spray, then flour a 12-cup, or 10-inch Bundt pan, and place it on a baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and brown sugar on medium-speed until very thick and pale. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream down the side of the bowl, beating until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then set speed to low and add the molasses mixture. Beat until just incorporated, then scrape down the sides of the bowl again. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing only until all traces of flour disappear. Transfer batter to the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the domed part of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then carefully invert cake onto the rack, lift away the pan and cool completely to room temperature.
- Dust the cocoa powder over the cake, using a fine-mesh sieve or tea strainer, then transfer to a serving plate.

BOLD AND SPICY GINGERBREAD CAKE POP
Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a nonstick 9-by-13-inch pan.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl and set aside. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbling. Stir in the cinnamon, allspice, black pepper and 1 tablespoon ginger and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Let cool slightly.
- Whisk the sugar, eggs and remaining 1 tablespoon ginger in a large bowl until light and frothy. Stir in the melted butter mixture, beer and molasses until incorporated. Whisk the flour mixture into the egg mixture until no lumps remain. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and gently tap the pan on the countertop to release any trapped air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely.
- For the spiced cream cheese buttercream: Put the white chocolate chips in a heatsafe bowl and set aside. Bring the sugar and 3 cups water to a boil in a saucepan and reduce the heat. Mix the cornstarch with 1 cup water and add it to the hot liquid. Bring it back to a boil, then pour it over the white chocolate chips. Let cool to room temperature.
- Add the butter and vanilla to the white chocolate chip mixture and mix with a whisk until light and fluffy. Fold in the cream cheese, cinnamon and ginger.
- Slice the cake into 1-inch cubes. Mount the cubes on lollipop sticks and frost generously with the buttercream. Enjoy.
GINGERBREAD CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR SAUCE
A delightful discovery I made in my Company's Coming 'Lunches' cookbook. The original recipe includes a lemon sauce, but we prefer brown sugar sauce with a generous dollop of whipped cream rather. Or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Mmm, and the smell... **Update Aug '09: Forget brown sugar sauce! Make a double recipe as a sheet cake (bake for only 20 minutes @ 325) with a double recipe of Recipe#127144! I don't know why I haven't updated this sooner -- I've been making it this way for at least the last 2 years already!!

GINGERBREAD CAKE WITH SNOW SUGAR
I love a gingerbread house, but a gingerbread cake has all the flavors of the holiday season packed into one perfect moist dessert. Snow Sugar is a perfect topping to go with this cake - the coconut oil helps the sugar keep from melting into the surface of the cake (as powdered sugar sometimes can) so that it really has a beautiful snowy effect.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush the bottoms and sides of two 9-by-3-inch loaf pans with oil. Line the bottoms with parchment paper leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides, then brush the paper with oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the whole eggs, egg yolks, molasses and vanilla until smooth. In a small bowl, mix the buttermilk with 1/3 cup of hot water.
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour with the baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg and cloves. Add the brown sugar and mix very well. Add the butter and oil and mix until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Slowly drizzle in the egg mixture and stir until incorporated, then whisk in the buttermilk mixture until smooth, scraping around the sides and bottom of the bowl as necessary.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans, then sprinkle half the candied ginger on top of each cake. Bake until the cakes feel bouncy and a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the cakes to a rack and let cool for 10 minutes. Unmold the cakes, being sure to peel off the parchment paper, and cool completely on the rack, right-side up.
- When ready to serve, place a gingerbread cake on a serving platter, then sift 1/2 cup of the Snow Sugar in a sieve over the top of the cake until dusted.
- Place the sugar and cornstarch in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly drizzle in the coconut oil while whisking until the mixture comes together; it may clump together slightly but should redistribute fairly evenly to look like coarse breadcrumbs. If you are going to use the snow sugar immediately, place the bowl in the refrigerator for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the coconut oil to solidify; it can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use. When you are ready to use, break up any large clumps, then place the snow sugar in a fine sieve and press lightly on the sugar to sift over the top of the cake to create a snowy effect.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9x9x2 straight sided square cake pan (10 cup volume minimum) with the butter and lightly dust with the granulated sugar. Do not use a smaller pan or you will have a big but very tasty mess in your oven.

- In a small pot, bring the brown sugar and root beer to a boil. Meanwhile, add the molasses mixture to the flour and stir to combine. Add the hot root beer mixture and quickly beat until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean (35-45 minutes). Let cool in the pan on a wire rack until warm (40 minutes).
- Invert the pan to remove the cake and turn the cake right side up (cake may be prepared up to 4 hours ahead).
- In a chilled medium bowl, beat the cream and sugar with a hand mixer until soft peaks form (3 minutes). Cut the gingerbread into 8 pieces of whatever size you choose and place one on each of 8 plates. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and serve.
