Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square cake pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with cooking spray as well, and then set aside.
- In a small saucepan, combine the butter and milk. Heat over medium-high, just until the butter is melted and bubbles form around the edges of the pan. Whisk in the brown sugar until dissolved. Remove from the heat and cool.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and salt.
- Stir the egg into the cooled butter mixture.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the butter mixture. Stir just until a smooth batter forms, being careful not to over-mix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
- Dust cooled cake with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream, if desired.

GINGERBREAD CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
As with most gingerbreads, this cake only gets better with time. When it's first baked, it will be light and cakey. If you wrap it and let it sit a day, it will become even more moist and the warm spices will intensify. Either way, it's homey and delicious and perfect for your holiday table. And if you don't have gingerbread cookies to decorate the bottom with, don't worry. This cake can easily stand alone and still impress.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottom of each with a parchment round.
- Stir together the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
- Combine the brown sugar and butter in another large bowl and beat with an electric mixer on high speed, scraping down sides of bowl with a rubber spatula as needed, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until combined (it's fine if the mixture looks a little curdled).
- Stir the molasses into the boiling water in a large spouted measuring cup. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the molasses mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, increase the speed to medium and beat just until smooth.
- Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs attached, 22 to 27 minutes. Let the cakes cool completely in the pans on a wire rack. Once cool, invert the cakes onto the rack, then peel off and discard the parchment.
- For the frosting: Combine the butter and cream cheese in a clean mixer bowl. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the confectioner's' sugar, beating until combined. Add the vanilla and gradually increase the speed to high. Beat until the frosting is light and fluffy, adding up to 1 tablespoon of milk if needed so the frosting is spreadable.
- Place one cake layer flat-side down on a cake stand or platter. Top with about 3/4 cup of the frosting, spreading almost to the edges using an offset spatula. Place the remaining cake layer on top, flat-side up. Spread the remaining frosting on the entire cake and smooth the top and sides with the offset spatula. Refrigerate the cake while you decorate the gingerbread cookies.
- For the decorations: Meanwhile, microwave the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl until just melted. (Alternatively, melt the chips in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water; do not let bowl touch the water.) Let cool slightly and put into a piping bag fitted with a small plain tip (or use a plastic ziptop bag with the corner snipped off). Pipe eyes and smiles on the gingerbread cookie faces.
- Arrange the merry gingerbread men side by side around the bottom edge of the cake, pressing in slightly to adhere. Sprinkle the top of the cake with the nonpareils.

GINGER AND CREAM CAKE ROLL
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease. Sift together flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
- Beat together egg and water in a large bowl, then whisk in white sugar, and molasses. Fold in the sifted dry ingredients until smooth, then pour batter into prepared pan.
- Bake in preheated oven until the cake springs back to the touch, about 15 minutes. When done, remove from oven, and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Then cover pan with a moistened towel, and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.
- To assemble, remove cake from the jelly roll pan, and invert onto a fresh sheet of parchment paper; remove and discard the old parchment paper. Sprinkle evenly with confectioners' sugar, then spread evenly with whipped cream. Roll up from narrow end to narrow end, forming a firm spiral log. Wrap in the parchment paper and chill until ready to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with foil. Spray the foil and the sides of the pan with nonstick spray.
- Place eggs in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in sugar, molasses, and applesauce.
- Stir flour, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, allspice, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add to the wet ingredients and mix to combine. Spread into the prepared pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Lay a kitchen towel on a work surface and sprinkle liberally with 1/4 cup powdered sugar, or as needed. Remove cake from the oven and immediately turn out onto the towel.
- Start at the narrow end and roll the towel and cake together. Let sit until completely cool, about 2 hours. The cake will be sticky, soft, and spongy; it might come off a little on your fingers, but that's okay.
- Place mascarpone cheese in a medium mixing bowl. Beat with a hand mixer or an electric wire whisk and gradually add vanilla, followed by 1 cup powdered sugar. Slowly add whipping cream and continue to beat until icing becomes light and fluffy. Mix in eggnog.
- Unroll the cooled cake and gently remove the towel. Spread about 1/2 of the filling over the cake, leaving about 1/2 inch uncovered at the edges. Start at the narrow end and re-roll the cake. As you roll, the filling will shift a little and you may need to remove some if you've put too much on; that's okay, just have a knife handy to scrape off any excess as you roll.
- Cut into slices. Top with remaining filling and dust with cinnamon and powdered sugar. Or, wrap cake in plastic wrap before slicing, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.
