Ingredients
- 1 cup Molasses (not Blackstrap)
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Soda
- 2-1/4 cups Boiling Water
- 4 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Light Brown Sugar
- 3/4 cups Vegetable Oil
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a medium-sized heat-proof bowl, combine molasses, baking soda, and boiling water and stir until well mixed. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and brown sugar. Add vegetable oil and mix with your hands until crumbs form.
- Remove 1 1/2 cups of the crumb mixture and set aside. Whisk remaining crumbs into the molasses mixture until combined. The batter will be thin.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased 13x9 baking dish. Sprinkle the 1 1/2 cups of reserved crumbs evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
