These were a little too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some extra buttermilk next time.

I'm not a big fan of molasses, but these gingerbread squares were still really good. The buttermilk gave them a nice tang.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gingerbread squares turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't add enough buttermilk?
