- 3/4 cup stout beer
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2/3 cup mild molasses
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
- 2 large eggs

- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh gingerroot
Method
- Preheat oven to 350°F Grease and flour an 8x8" square baking pan.
- Bring stout to a boil in a large saucepan. Off heat, stir in baking soda; it will foam up. When foam subsides, add molasses and both sugars; stir until dissolved.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, ground ginger, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and pepper.
- Whisk eggs, oil and grated ginger into stout mixture.
- Whisk wet mixture into flour mixture in thirds, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Pour batter into pan and bake 35-45 min, until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Cool cake in pan on wire rack for 1 1/2 hours. Cut into squares.
