Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup molasses
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. ginger
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter, sugar, egg, and molasses for 1 minute. Add the boiling water, whole wheat and almond flours, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and ginger. Mix well for about 4 more minutes.
  • Butter a 9×9 inch baking dish and pour the batter into the dish. Bake for about 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool on a wire rack.
  • In the meantime, whip the cream until barely thick; add the powdered sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat for another 30 seconds-1 minute. Cut the cake into squares and serve with a dollop of cream on top.
