- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or a ring mold.

- In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg, then stir in the molasses.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the gingerbread cool completely in the pan before serving.
- Serve warm with whipped cream.
