Gingerbread Snack Cake Recipe

Ginger Bread Snack Cake is so light and mildly spiced that you will love it if you like spice in your cake.The cake is so soft as you can see in the pics, the texture was just like the one I saw in the orginal recipe though I got a lighter color as I used jaggery syrup instead of molasses.Other than that it came out as I saw in the orginal recipe.

My Notes:

  • The jaggery syrup should be slightly thick .
  • The cake is very soft.Make sure to cool down the cake completely then slice.
  • The batter will be thick but flowing.
  • I halved the orginal recipe and got 16 squares.
  • I used 4X4 inch square tin.
  • The color of the cake depends on the color of the color of the jaggery syrup and brown sugar.

    Sharmi, Very tempting recipe, picture perfect cake slices. Can we replace egg with curd or hung curd….? We don't use egg, so any alternative idea please. Your photograph tempting to make it. New website design is nice, totally a new look to Sharmis passion.
