Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350°F Butter an 8x8-inch cake pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt onto a sheet of waxed paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until light and creamy. Add the sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and pour in the molasses in a slow, steady stream, beating all the while. Add half of the sifted dry ingredients and mix just until well combined. Mix in the remaining dry ingredients. Slowly pour in the cold water and stir until well incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minute Let cool in the pan about 1 hour before serving.
- Beat the cream until thickened. Slowly pour in the syrup and continue beating until the cream holds soft peaks. Cut the cake into squares; serve with the whipped cream.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gingerbread turned out really flat. It didn't rise at all. Maybe I didn't mix the ingredients properly? I'm going to try it again and see if I can get it right this time.

[email protected]This recipe is a keeper! The gingerbread is moist and flavorful, and the icing is the perfect complement. I've already made it twice and it's been a hit both times.

[email protected]I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The gingerbread was dry and crumbly, and the icing was too sweet. I won't be making this again.
