OLD-FASHIONED GINGERBREAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 by 8-inch cake pan and line with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan.
- Place the rum and raisins in a small pan, cover and heat until the rum boils. Turn off the heat and set aside. Place the butter and molasses in another small pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Pour the mixture into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cool for 5 minutes, then mix in the sour cream and orange zest.
- Meanwhile, sift the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together in a small bowl. Mix with your hands until combined. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the molasses mixture and mix only until smooth. Drain the raisins and add them and crystallized ginger to the mixture with a spatula. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for about 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Set aside to cool completely.
- When the cake has cooled, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and orange juice and pour it onto the gingerbread, allowing it to drip down the sides. Allow the glaze to set. Cut the gingerbread into 9 squares.

GINGER CAKE WITH RAISIN SAUCE
A wonderful combination of brown sugar, molasses, spices, and raisins! I am crazy over a good gingerbread with real whip cream. This sweetened goodness is a bit richer due to the sauce but ooooohhhhh so good!

GINGER RAISIN COOKIES
Tastes like a cake-like version of a gingerbread cookie. These have the perfect amount of ginger flavor (just enough to make them feel spiced but not actually spicy like eat a piece of crystallized ginger). This recipe came from one of those no-name cookbooklets that you find in the grocery store checkout line. You may need to include a bit more flour if you are like me when you measure flour. I spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level it off. This recipe might have been meant to scoop the flour into the cup but I found adding another 1/4 cup of spooned-in flour worked for me. It is a soft dough but should be manageable. You can try refrigerating it a little before baking. I also subbed 1/4 tsp orange extract for the grated orange peel because I wanted the ginger and molasses flavors to stand out more. If you use the extract, put it in at the same time you put in the vanilla extract. Either works.I got exactly 24 using a teaspoon cookie scoop. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease cookies sheets. Combine flour, baking soda, ginger, orange peel, salt, and cinnamon in medium bowl; set aside.
- Beat 1/2 cup granulated sugar, butter and brown sugar in large bowl with electric mixer at medium speed 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add egg, molasses and vanilla; beat 1 minute. Add flour mixture and raisins; stir until blended.
- Pour remaining granulated sugar (you may actually need more than the 1/4 cup that is left over -- I used about 1/2 cup to make it easier to coat) into a bowl. Using a cookie scoop or a teaspoon, drop 1-inch balls into the sugar. (You probably want to do them one at a time or use a large, shallow bowl if you want to do more at a time.) Using your hands, roll the dough in the sugar until well coated. If your dough is soft, you may find it helpful to pour some sugar over the top of each dough ball before rolling it. The sugar will keep the dough from sticking to your fingers.
- Place 1 1/2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until edges are set and centers are slightly soft. Cool on cookie sheets 2 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.

MOLASSES GINGER CAKE
This easy, dense dark cake packs in a lot of flavor. Molasses, a slightly bitter sweetener, is key, giving the cake just the right character. Chopped dates, raisins and a good dose of black pepper are all in evidence, along with ginger and cinnamon. The end result is so good: If you bet you can stop at one slice, you'll surely lose the wager.

Steps:
- Place a rack in the middle of the oven and heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch cake pan and line with parchment. Butter the parchment.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, ginger, baking powder, pepper and cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together molasses, sugar and melted butter. Add eggs, and whisk well. Stir in raisins and dates.
- Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, fold the dry ingredients into wet ingredients until incorporated and no streaks of flour remain. The batter will be stiff. Spread batter into prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake until a testing skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes.
