Gingerbread Pound Cake Recipes

This is so, so tasty and moist I just couldn’t keep it to myself. I ended up making this dessert three times for the 2015 Christmas season; one for my daughters holiday staff party, one for my husband’s office holiday party, and one for the family get together the weekend before Christmas. And it was a success and an overall hit with everyone, even those that said they didn’t like gingerbread.

I tailored this recipe I found on The View from Great Island blog (link to this site is below). The original was half my recipe and served with cream cheese frosting. I don’t think it is necessary for the frosting. The cake is sweet by itself. I ended up doubling the recipe because I wanted to put it into an Angel food pan or Bundt pan which it works well in.
