This Recipe is A Keeper!..
I baked this according to the directions on Allrecipes and it was too dry; I changed the directions from one hour to 45-50 minutes but since ovens vary, check it around 40 to be safe! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for this yummy recipe. My family loves gingerbread and hard sauce. I don't have a family favorite recipe. If this is a keeper, I'll have to try this!
