MY GRANDMOTHER'S FROSTED GINGER CREAMS



My Grandmother's FROSTED GINGER CREAMS image

This recipe was my grandmothers recipe. I can remember my mother making these and they were always a favorite of mine. Well I like anything with ginger!

Provided by Mary Louise

Categories     Cookies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 c sugar
1 c butter
2 eggs
2/3 c molasses
3 c flour
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 c luke warm water
1 tsp baking soda
frosting:
6 Tbsp brown sugar
6 Tbsp sweet milk or canned milk
3 Tbsp butter
3 1/2-4 c powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs. Beat until light and fluffy. Add molasses. Blend in.
  • 2. Sift together flour, ginger, cloves, cinnamon and salt.
  • 3. Add baking soda to water.
  • 4. Add dry ingredients and water to egg mixture alternatively.
  • 5. Bake at 350 degrees in a jelly roll pan for 25 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool cake before frosting.
  • 6. To make frosting add brown sugar, milk and butter to a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add powdered sugar to thicken. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Frost the cake immediately while frosting is warm. Spread as you pour. Frosting sets fast and is hard to spread otherwise. I can not see why you can not frost while the cake is still warm. It might make it easier! Just a tip.
