A recipe for molasses cake.
The blackstrap molasses jar sits on our kitchen counter.
“What are you going to do with THAT?” inquired my daughter.
“Make a cake”, I said.
“Really, now?” my daughter asked.
“Yup, now,” I replied.
My daughter asked, “Why?”
“Just because,” I stated.
“Okay, yum. I can’t wait.” my daughter said, thrilled.
Sometimes, life can be that simple. Bake a cake, just because.
I think you should, too. Especially THIS recipe for molasses cake. It’s moist, flavourful and really hits the spot. That’s all I will say. It’s as simple as that!
