List of Ingredients
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup solid vegetable shortening
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup molasses
1 cup all-purpose white flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup boiling water
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening. Add the egg and molasses and beat until smooth. Sift together the flour, salt, and spices and add to the molasses mixture. Mix well. Then add the boiling water and beat until smooth. Pour into the baking pan.
Bake for 30 minutes or until a tester inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm or completely cooled. Whipped cream makes a lovely accompaniment.
