Joan Likes Gingerbread in
Amy Shape or Form.
BIZ FLORENCE La GANKE.

Joan was developing quite a sweet
tooth. Aunt Nancy did not want her
to have cake, but she saw no reason
why gingerbread could not be served
frequently. The molasses in the gin
gerbread was a laxative and the cake
itself called for no icing. Here is the
recipe she used when she baked the
gingerbread In sheet or loaf.
She creamed two tablespoonfuls but
ter with one-fourth cupful sugar and

added one-fourth cupful molasses
Then added one beaten egg and one
third cupful sour cream. To this she
added these dry ingredients which had
been sifted together: One cupful -four,
one-fourth teaspoonful salt. one tea
spoonful ginger, one-fourth teaspoon
full soda and one-fourth teaspoonful
baking powder. The mixture was
beaten together vigorously and then
put into an oiled square baking pan or
an oiled small loaf bread pan. It was
baked in an oven and set at 375 de-
grees Fahrenheit
