Spicy, moist cake which is why it is my all time favourite Gingerbread. It came from a Robin Hood Cookbook I got for a wedding shower present.

Combine flour, baking powder, soda, salt and spices in a bowl mixing well to blend.
2
Cream shortening, sugar and eggs thoroughly.
3
Add molasses and mix well.
4
Add dry ingredients to molasses mixture.
5
Stir in boiling water; mix well.
6
Pour batter into greased and floured 9-inch square pan.
7
Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.

It is delicious. I used very dark Jamaican molasses and so added a little extra sugar after tasting the batter. My house smells good now, also!
