1 cup boiling water |
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted |
1/2 cup molasses |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 large eggs, lightly beaten |
2 cups self-rising flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
stewed yard peaches |
Directions:
1. Whisk together first 4 ingredients in a large bowl; let cool. Whisk in eggs.
2. Sift together self-rising flour and next 3 ingredients; whisk into molasses mixture, whisking until smooth. Pour batter into a greased and floured 8-inch square baking pan.
3. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve with warm Stewed Yard Peaches.
