| The Gingerbread |
- In a small bowl mix 1 cup milk and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. This will curdle the milk, making sour milk.
- Take your large mixing bowl and cream together ¾ cup of sugar and ½ cup margarine.
- Next mix in ¾ cup molasses.
- Mix in ½ cup of the sour milk mixture you made in the other small bowl. (FIGURE 1)
- Stir in 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- Add ¾ teaspoon salt.
- Mix in ½ teaspoon baking powder.
- Add 2 teaspoons of ginger.
- Finally mix in 4 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time.
*If you mix in the flour 1 cup at a time it will make it easier to beat together. (FIGURE 2)
- Knead the dough into a smooth shape. This is the end product. (FIGURE 3)
- Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours.
