Ingredients:

350g (1 batch) Gingerbread Cake Mix
100g softened butter
1 egg
120ml sour cream (or buttermilk)
120ml black treacle (or molasses)
50g preserved stem ginger, finely chopped
240ml boiling water

Method:

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and beat until smooth. Gradually add the boiling water and stir until just combined.

Pour the resultant batter into a greased 22cm cake tin then place in an oven pre-heated to 180°C and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the top of the cake is golden and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake emerges cleanly.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the tin then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with a dollop of plain yoghurt, or whipped cream to which a few drops of vanilla extract have been added.
