GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE
This was my favorite dessert when I was a little girl. I can remember clearly the smell of the gingerbread cooking in the oven--even now the smell bring goose bumps. Having two brothers I had to compete vigorously for my share of seconds. If I lost, my mother would always give me her piece when the the boys weren't looking. I don't have it any longer, but I remember finding this recipe many years later on a little scrap of paper in the pages of my mother's favorite cookbook.

CRAZY GINGERBREAD (WITH LEMON SAUCE)
This is one of my mom's old favorites, and I've made it many times too. It's similar to "Crazy Cake" which is chocolate but follows the same procedure. These recipes were popular in the 70's (in my neighborhood, anyway!). (I'm posting the Lemon Sauce recipe separately to keep those ingredients separate from the cake ingredients.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- In an ungreased 8x8 inch pan, stir together all dry ingredients.
- With a spoon, make three "wells" in the dry ingredients. In one "well" put the vinegar, in another the oil, and in the third the vanilla.
- Mix the water and molasses in a separate bowl. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix quickly with a fork. Mix until lumps are gone, but do not beat.
- Bake at 375º for about 30 minutes.
- Cut and serve from baking pan, with lemon sauce, applesauce, or whipped cream.
- See my recipe for "Lemon Sauce" at this site. The contrasting lemon flavor and moistness added by the sauce is what adds the finishing touch to this cake, making it suitable for a company dessert!

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh ginger. If you don't have fresh ginger on hand, you can substitute 1 tablespoon of ground ginger.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To make sure the gingerbread is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the gingerbread is done.
- Let the gingerbread cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- For a lighter frosting, use whipped cream instead of butter.
- To add a bit of extra flavor to the frosting, you can add a teaspoon of lemon zest or vanilla extract.
Conclusion:
This gingerbread with lemon sauce and whipped cream is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The gingerbread is moist and flavorful, and the lemon sauce and whipped cream add a perfect finishing touch. With a few simple tips, you can make this recipe at home and impress your friends and family.
