Similar to the pie - a Pennsylvania Dutch favorite and so easy to make.
List of Ingredients
1 cup molasses
2 1/2 cups boiling water
1 tablespoon baking soda
4 cups all purpose flour
1 16oz. light brown sugar
1/2 cup oilRecipe
In a large bowl mix the molasses, boiling water and soda. In a separate bowl blend the flour, brown sugar and oil. Reserve 4 cups for topping. Set aside. Mix remaining dry ingredients with the liquid. Pour into a lightly sprayed 9x13" pan and top with crumbs (Have faith, it will be soupy but the finished cake is wonderful). Bake in a 325F oven for 40-50 minutes.
