Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup butter, cut into small pieces
  • 2/3 cup hot water
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup frozen reduced-fat whipped topping, thawed
  • ground cinnamon (optional)
  • lemon slices (optional)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. Combine butter and hot water in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk until the butter melts. Add molasses and egg, and stir with a whisk until blended. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, salt, and cloves. Add flour mixture to the molasses mixture, stirring just until moist.
  3. Spoon batter into a 9 x 9-inch cake pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool gingerbread in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
  4. Combine sugar and lemon juice, stirring until well blended. Pierce top of gingerbread liberally with a wooden skewer. Pour glaze over gingerbread. Cool completely.
  5. Top each serving with the whipped topping. Sprinkle gingerbread with cinnamon and garnish with lemon slices, if desired.
