need soft gingerbread recipe

[westie04]

my friend went away for xmas but forgot to give me hers any one help plz

Someone on MN gave me this one the other day: 8oz plain flour, 2oz sugar, 1 teaspoon mixed spice, 1 level teaspoon bicarb soda, 1-2 teaspoon ground giner, 4 oz lard or butter, 6oz black treacle, 2 oz golden syrup, quarter pint milk 1 egg.

sieve dry ingredients into mixing bowl. Put butter, blk treacle golden syrup into a saucepan and heat until fat has melted. let this coll slightly and add to dry ingrediants. Warm up the milk in the empty but durty saucepan and pour into the bowl with the other ingrediants.

Now beat this well, lastly beating in the egg. Pour into a lined7 inch cake tin and bake in the center of the oven on gas mark 2 300-325 F for 1 and a half hours. Allow cake to cool for ten mins and then turn onto a wire tray. Store in an airtight tin for several days before cutting - yeah right - to allow the flavour to develop - as if you can wait that long.

I've not tried it yet. But I have done this one and it was a great success.
