    Gingerbread Cake Instructions

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Set 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter (not provided) and 1/3 cup cream cheese (not provided) on counter to soften. Grease a 9x9" or 9x13" pan by dipping a paper towel into the vegetable oil and lightly coating pan.

    Place 3/4 cup water in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until warm, 30-60 seconds. Water should not be boiling. You can also heat water on the stovetop, if desired.

    In a mixing bowl, combine 1 egg (not provided), vegetable oil, molasses, and brown sugar. Add cake flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger. Add hot water and mix until fully combined. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in hot oven until golden around edges and cooked through, 12-20 minutes.

    Let cake cool, then invert onto a serving dish.

    While cake cools, in another mixing bowl, using electric mixer or whisk, beat softened butter and cream cheese together. Add confectioner's sugar and mix until smooth and creamy, 2-3 minutes.

    Frost cooled cake and cut into squares. Bon appétit!
