Sticky Gingerbread Cake

Make this Sticky Gingerbread Cake for a truly magical experience. The dense cake is sweetened with blackstrap molasses, which keeps this Christmas cake from being too sweet. Cinnamon, ginger, brown sugar, and vanilla round out the holiday flavor. The slight bitterness is counteracted by the thick cream cheese frosting lathered on top. This gingerbread cake recipe is an excellent dessert, but it's even better as a companion to your morning coffee. You will definitely make this easy Christmas dessert at least once, if not more, throughout the holiday season.
