Tips:
- For a moist and flavorful cake, use dark molasses instead of regular molasses.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Be sure to grease and flour your baking pan before adding the batter, to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
