A slightly tart dessert sweetened with a warm, rich rum sauce served on the top. The whole red cranberries add a festive touch of color to the dark molasses cake. Perfect for the holiday dessert table.
Directions
CAKE:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg with the sugar until light yellow.
  • Add the molasses and stir; then while stirring, slowly add the hot water.
  • In a large bowl, blend the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the molasses mixture to the dry ingredients and beat with an electric mixer until well blended.
  • Stir in the cranberries and add the rum flavoring.
  • Pour into the greased pan and bake for 35 minutes. The cake will appear moist when done.
SAUCE:
