Directions:
- In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar. Beat in egg and molasses. Combine the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and cloves; add to creamed mixture alternately with water.
- Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
- For topping, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and ginger. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in pecans and lemon peel. Sprinkle over gingerbread.
- Bake 10 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted near the center of cake comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with whipped cream if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
