GLUTEN-FREE GINGERBREAD CAKE
A family tradition of ours is to make a gingerbread cake for Christmas morning shaped like a gingerbread man. In the past, we've decorated him with icing and even had a single, big cake pan (which, in recent years, got damaged). We now use this updated, gluten-free recipe in two, small pans which are, roughly, the same volume as 9" cake pans.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and the brown sugar, together. Once it is lighter and both ingredients are fully incorporated into one another, set aside.
- Add the remaining ingredients and slowly mix to combine. You should get a sticky, thick batter.
- Pour into two oiled-and-floured (with gluten-free flour) 9" baking pans.
- Place into a heated 350 degree (Fahrenheit) oven for about an hour. Test the cakes with toothpicks starting around 45 minutes. When the toothpicks can be inserted into the center of a cake and removed with no sticky residue on the pick, it is done.
- De-pan and turn out to cool.
- Serve with whipped cream.
