One of the local resturants in our area offers this on their menu and it is so delicious. I thought I would try to make it for New Years Day. I was disappointed with this recipe, even though it has great reviews. I was a little leery since their was no sugar listed in the cake part of the recipe, so I doubled the streusel topping, other than that, I made the recipe as written. It came out pretty dry, and although it had a gingerbread taste, it was not sweet enough, and very bland. No one really cared for this recipe that much. I'm sorry to rate this so low, but I won't be making it again.

    How I love this cake. It is so light and airy with such lovely flavour. Made to the recipe except I subbed golden syrup for the molasses...and I floured my cake pan after greasing. I served this with fresh whipped cream - but what I'd like to do next time is add some chinese preserved ginger to the cream...mmmm yum!! This would be a great cake to whip up for unexpected guests.

    This the THE perfect dessert for a small family! I used a combination of molasses and golden syrup - oh yum! I served it with French Vanilla and Cinnamon ice cream. This was so easy! Too easy! It was a great dessert and wonderful with coffee the next morning!! Thanks Paula!
