SUGARPLUM GINGERBREAD CAKE
This deeply spiced gingerbread cake recipe comes from the cookbook author Genevieve Ko, who found inspiration in the light-as-air cakes she tasted from Chinese bakeries in Southern California, as well as the sweets - hot candied ginger and sugared, dried plums (a.k.a. prunes) - that her grandmothers offered her as a child. Ms. Ko's cake uses oil, not butter, which gives the crumb a fluffy, moist texture. The liquid base of rehydrated prunes brings sweetness along with depth of flavor.

Steps:
- Put the prunes along with 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until the fruit is very soft and starting to break down, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in molasses and baking soda, then set aside.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat to 350 degrees. Generously butter or spray, then flour a 12-cup, or 10-inch Bundt pan, and place it on a baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and brown sugar on medium-speed until very thick and pale. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream down the side of the bowl, beating until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then set speed to low and add the molasses mixture. Beat until just incorporated, then scrape down the sides of the bowl again. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing only until all traces of flour disappear. Transfer batter to the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the domed part of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then carefully invert cake onto the rack, lift away the pan and cool completely to room temperature.
- Dust the cocoa powder over the cake, using a fine-mesh sieve or tea strainer, then transfer to a serving plate.

Steps:
- 1. In a bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Sift or mix till well incorporated. Set aside.
- 2. In your stand up mixer or bowl with hand mixer, cream sugar and butter till light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time till well incorporated. Then finely add your molasses, beat well. Add your dry ingredients slowly till nice dough forms. Wrap your dough in plastic wrap and refridgerate for 1/2 hr.
- 3. As dough is chilling, make your filling. In a small bowl, add your blueberry preserves, your cinnamon and finally your chopped walnuts, set aside.
- 4. Preheat oven to 350F. Remove chilled dough from the refridgerator, using a small cookie scoop, scoop out uniform size balls of dough. Place on cookie sheet. When all cookie balls have been placed, go back and make cookies into nice balls. Using your thumb, indent a thumbprint onto the middle of the cookie. If dough cracks, just work it over and smooth it.
- 5. Add your sugarplum filling (aka, your blueberry, walnut, cinnamon). Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven, and let sit on cookie sheet for about 1 minute to ensure easier handling. Place cookies on cooling rack to cool.
- 6. As cookies are cooling, make your lemon cream cheese filling. In your mixer bowl, add your butter, cream cheese. Beat till light and fluffy. Add your sugar, vanilla and beat till thoroughly incorporated. Finally add your grated lemon zest. Spoon frosting into a pastry bag using a star tip, or a ziplock bag if needed. Pipe frosting over cookies right onto the cooling rack. Let sit overnight to ensure frosting has hardened. Enjoy!!
