Molasses Cake - Old timey, 100-year-old recipe from the Home Comfort Wood Stove Cookbook!
This Molasses Cake recipe was published in my great-grandmother's Home Comfort Wood Stove Cook Book. The company started producing wood stoves before the end of the Civil War. This copy of the cookbook comes from the early 1930s, but no doubt, this recipe goes back to the 1800s. Molasses Cake is a very old, traditional southern dessert. I've tried other Molasses Cake recipes but I love the flavor of this one. The baking instructions were written for a wood stove so you'll have to determine the best time and temperature for your liking, but I'll publish the recipe below exactly as it was printed in the cookbook.

⚠️ Also, I noticed while typing up this recipe that I read the baking time wrong! I baked this too long anyway. Even 40 minutes would've been enough by this recipe. I thought it had said 45-55 minutes. ????????♀️ Still, in the future, I'll start checking this at around the 30 minute mark for doneness.

Ginger Molasses Cookies
4 Cups Organic All Purpose Flour
11/2 cup Organic Cane Sugar
4 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Pink Himalayan Salt
2 Eggs
1 1/2 Cups Butter (softened & cut into cubes)
1/2 Cups Non-GMO Molasses
2 Drops Cinnamon Vitality
2 Drops Clove Vitality
5 Drops of Ginger Vitality
????Step. Add the Flour, Baking Soda, Sugar, and Salt to a bowl and mix well.
????Step 2. Crack Eggs in a separate bowl and then add them to the dry ingredients.
????Step 3. Add the Molasses, Butter, Sugar, Cinnamon Oil, Clove Oil, and Ginger Oil to the bowl with the dry ingredients
????Step 4. Now mix all the ingredients until well combined. (An electric mixer works best, but using those arm muscles is an excellent workout!)
????Step 5. Chill your dough if you want to make these cookies later (we made ours immediately). Be sure to let the dough sit for 20 minutes before scooping if making it later
????Step 6. Scoop your dough with a cookie scooper or a good old-fashioned spoon. Roll into balls, and then roll each cookie in your granulated cane sugar (you can also skip rolling in the sugar)
????Step 7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees
????Step 8. Place your cookies on a baking sheet 3 inches apart.
????Step 9. Grab a glass cup and use the bottom of the cup to flatten each ball halfway (don't press down too hard; you don't want them completely flat)
????Step 10. Bake your cookies for 10-15 minutes and cool on a baking rack. Enjoy or save them for later.
Thank you so much for being here and spending a piece of your day with me! Your love and support does not go unnoticed!
Peace, Joy, and Blessings! Pamela!
