Comment préparer Old Fashioned Ginger Cakes

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a cookie sheet.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, stir 1 teaspoon baking soda into 1 cup molasses.
In a small saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup boiling water.
Pour the wet ingredients (molasses mixture and melted butter mixture) into a large bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to make a soft, but workable dough.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet, leaving some space between each cake.
Bake for 25-29 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious historical treat!
