February 8. National Molasses bar day.

Molasses bars kinda taste like gingerbread. So if you like gingerbread and gingerbread cookies, 

you are for sure going to love these.

ingredients:

1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

1/4 cup molasses

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp ginger

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup hot coffee

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

- Preheat oven to 350F.

- Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.

- Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

- Add egg and beat well.

- Add molasses.

- Sift flour together with the baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.

- Alternately add coffee and flour mixture.

- Spread batter evenly into baking pan.

- Bake for about 25 minutes.

- Mix together a cup of confectioners sugar, 1 tbsp of milk, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract for the glaze.

- Let it completely cool and then you can either cut it and then glaze it, or glaze and then cut.

I couldn't find any of my square pans so I just used one of the round ones instead.

They rose a little bit higher than usual 'cause I used a smaller pan but they were still nice and moist so it's all good!

Putting the icing on them.

Go and try to make these! They're good!
