Ingredients: 0.75 Cup chocolate, baking, bittersweet coarsely chopped
|
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350F and lightly grease a baking pan (I used two small paper loaf pans, but you can also use an 8 inch round cake pan or a single full sized loaf pan).
Sift together the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, cinnamon, ginger and salt. Set aside.
Cream the butter & brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg. Mix the buttermilk and molasses together, and add all at once to the butter mixture. Don't worry if it looks a bit curdy.
Add the flour mixture and mix just until you get a smooth batter. Fold in the crystalized ginger and chocolate chips being careful not to overmix.
Bake until a cake tester comes clean, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before serving. |
