My Favorite Christmas Treat
My favorite Christmas treat is this Vintage 1940s Gingerbread Loaf, a recipe I found handwritten among my Gran’s old papers. It’s a dense, buttery gingerbread loaf made with molasses, warm spices, espresso powder, and fresh orange, then finished with a simple citrus glaze that soaks into the cake as it cools. I love it sliced thick with a little softened butter and a hot cup of tea or coffee during the holidays.
