How to Make Amanda S Molasses Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the molasses, vanilla extract, and buttermilk.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
