DIY Food Christmas Present Rebecca Brand shows how to make Gingerbread Cake, a great Christmas Dessert with this classic yet easy recipe that is by scratch. This by scratch classic Gingerbread Cake recipe is made with molasses for that rich dark flavor. How to Make Gingerbread is not hard any more! don't buy the box gingerbread mixes! The spices include cloves, cinnamon, and ginger to give it the perfect flavor. I make the tangerine, or citrus glaze that adds more than just a lemon glaze would to this cake. It's my favorite Christmas dessert every. I like to serve this gingerbread cake warm with home made whipped cream.
