LOOKING for: Molasses Cake

19 years ago

My Father-in-Law has been requesting a Molasses Cake which his Grandmother used to make in Up-State New York when he was a child. (He is 87 years old.) I have made gingerbread for him, but he says that is not what she made. Does anyone have a recipe for such a cake? I'd like to make one for him this month, but haven't a clue what the recipe might be. Any ideas?
