Gingerbread Spice Mix

After trying to buy/find Gingerbread spice for a pancake recipe, I came to the conclusion it's pretty much the same thing as Pumpkin Pie spice. But store-bought Pumpkin Pie spice didn't have cloves and I knew I wanted something a little more complex, so these ingredients are the ones I finally decided on!

Gingerbread Cake Gingerbread Cake
This cake is inspired by the amazing Chef John @foodwishes. This cake is moist, dense and fudgy. The only kinda cake which I would eat, as you should have known by now. I love the wonderful aroma of gingerbread spice, especially during final baking process. If I were to compare my previous pumpkin cake and this gingerbread cake, I would definitely go for gingerbread.What really got me is the hint of molasses aftertaste. It lingers at the back of my mouth for quite awhile which leaves me wanting for more. Pls do not use fresh grated ginger. It will overpower everything else (speaking from experience). Just use regular ground ginger. I also added a pinch of Chinese 5 spice for that oomph undertone flavor.I also decided to add a touch of lemon glaze to bring freshness to the cake. You can of cos serve the cake as it is, or you can go the extra mile and serve it with ice cream and tuile. Pls do not be intimidated by the look of it. It is actually fairly simple and easy. If all hell breaks loose, try again cos at the end of the day, it is just a kitchen fail down the bin. What you gain is experience, which is priceless. Okay, enuff of ranting and let's get started with the recipe. Daniel Lim -

White Gingerbread Cookies White Gingerbread Cookies
I found this recipe on a blog called food.com. It was submitted by Heather Sullivan. However, the measurements were in metric so I had to convert it. In that process I got a much sticker dough than I could roll out. So I settled for a ginger drop cookie. Blair Webster-Urton -
Gingerbread cookies Gingerbread cookies
These smells bring us a little closer to Christmas. I had wanted to make these cookies for a long time and taking advantage of the fact that I had a dinner with some friends, I made them to give them as gifts. I have made holes in the top so that they can be hung from the Christmas tree too IreneGS -
