Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside.

  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Add the molasses to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.

  5. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

  9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. Once cooled, slice the Ginger Cake UK into wedges and serve as is or with a sprinkling of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.
