1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar |
1 large egg |
1/2 cup honey |
1/2 cup light molasses |
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup hot water |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. Beat butter and sugar in a large bowl at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add egg, honey, and molasses, beating until blended. 3. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients; add to butter mixture alternately with water, beginning and ending with flour mixture. 4. Pour batter into a lightly greased and floured 9-inch square baking pan. 5. Bake for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into 20 rectangles. |
