This is a perfect and super easy holiday dessert. It is moist and rich and the hidden veggies make it great for the kids Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice |
1 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
4 eggs |
3/4 cup molasses |
1 cup vegetable juice |
1 cup dried cherries |
Directions:
1. Spray a 4-quart slow cooker with the cooking spray.
2. Stir the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt and allspice in a medium bowl.
3. Place the butter and brown sugar into a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is creamy. Beat in the eggs and molasses.
