CONTEST-WINNING GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE

GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE
This was my favorite dessert when I was a little girl. I can remember clearly the smell of the gingerbread cooking in the oven--even now the smell bring goose bumps. Having two brothers I had to compete vigorously for my share of seconds. If I lost, my mother would always give me her piece when the the boys weren't looking. I don't have it any longer, but I remember finding this recipe many years later on a little scrap of paper in the pages of my mother's favorite cookbook.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter along with the sugar, syrup, molasses, ginger, and cinnamon. Off the heat, add the milk, eggs, and baking soda in its water.
- Measure the flour out into a bowl and pour in the liquid ingredients, beating until very well mixed (it will be a very liquid batter). Pour it into the pan and bake for 3/4 - 1 hour until risen and firm.
- Be careful not to overcook it, as it is nicer a little stickier, and anyway it will carry on cooking as it cools.
- And when it is cool, begin the frosting. Whisk the lemon juice into the confectioners' sugar first, then gradually add extract and milk, as needed to make desired consistency.
- Spread over the cooled gingerbread with a palette knife, and leave to set before cutting.
