This very basic but tasty cake is for Todd & Fuzz who both love ginger. The lemon drizzle makes it special so don’t leave that out. It’s kind of a sticky cake and turning it out of the pan didn’t go so well. In fact, it was the first time Pam for …

I’ll try anything once. Scratch that. So not true. But pepper in pound cake? Sure! It seemed like a fun combination. Plus, I’d read in a book that this cake was first prize winner at the West Texas State Fair in Abilene. According to Taste of Home, this recipe was created by a reader who was [...]
