OLD-FASHIONED MOLASSES CAKE
This old-time spice cake is lower in fat but big on flavor. Serve it warm for breakfast on a frosty morning or have a square with hot cider on a snowy afternoon. It's a great cold-weather treat. -Deanne Bagley, Bath, New York

GREAT-GREAT GRANDMA NEFF'S SOFT MOLASSES CAKE
My grandmother used to send me recipes in the mail and this is one that I treasure the most. I refer to it as a snack "bread" more than a "cake". Most people love it for the nostalgic feeling they get when their grandmother's made it when they were children. Great for the cold months with it's warm aroma filling your house. Perfect with coffee or tea after dinner.

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.
- Run a knife along the edge of the cake, and, once cooled, transfer to a serving platter. Slice into wedges and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
