GINGERBREAD CAKE (SPICY)
Adapted from a Gourmet recipe, this spicy gingerbread originated from the Gramercy Tavern. It's excellent warm, and even better after one day. If you like a deep, spicy gingerbread, you might try this one!

- Whisk together eggs and both sugars.
- Whisk in oil, then molasses mixture.
