How to Make Sausage Cake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground sausage, 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup molasses.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fill the prepared pan almost to the top.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- After 1 hour and 15 minutes, loosely cover the cake with aluminum foil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before removing.
- Once cooled, wrap the cake tightly in waxed paper or aluminum foil.
- For extra moistness (following an old family tradition), consider wrapping the cooled cake in a cloth dampened with wine before wrapping in foil.
- Store in an airtight container in a cool place. Enjoy!
