The acid in the buttermilk will react with the baking soda and baking powder to help this cake rise, creating a fluffy crumb. If you don't have buttermilk, be sure to read my article on Buttermilk Substitutes (https://thestayathomechef.com/buttermilk-substitute/) to pick something that works for you. Please don't just use milk or water. It will impact the results of the cake. This cake will need to be stored in the refrigerator due to the cream cheese frosting. If you don't have refrigerator space or don't like cream cheese frosting, you can always use a regular buttercream. However, I strongly prefer the flavor of the cream cheese frosting when it comes to pairing with gingerbread. It provides the perfect balance!IngredientsGINGERBREAD: 12 tablespoons butter, melted 2 cups brown sugar 2 cups molasses 1 cup warm water 1 cup buttermilk, room temperature 3 large eggs 2 tablespoons ground ginger 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 3/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 4 cups all-purpose flourCREAM CHEESE FROSTING 2 (8 ounce blocks) cream cheese 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 6 cups powdered sugarInstructions00:02:40 - How to make cream cheese frosting00:03:29 - How to assemble a layered cake 1 00:00:14 - Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
