      I agree but with a big mug of freshly pressed apple cider heated with spices (cinnamon, cloves , allspice). I'd feel better about eating the icing if it was made with fruits like banana, dates, and of course the spices in the original recipe.

    I prepared this batter and baked in smaller pans as a Christmas present for my neighbors. It came out amazing! And the smell of spices filled the whole house.

    Gingerbread smells so good baking. My mom used to make this occasionally throughout the year. She usually served it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, but I love the idea of brown butter frosting on this. 👍

    Made this for Christmas Eve and it was a huge hit! It was super moist and flavorful without being too spicy. I added a little nutmeg but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Thanks for sharing!!!

    Probably trying this on Christmas Eve. My family has a long tradition (from my Grandma 💛) of serving warm gingerbread with a warm brown sugar sauce (brown sugar, butter, cornstarch, water and vanilla). So yummy and warm, from the spices and the memories. 😊

    Gingerbread cookies are my dad’s favourite! He asks for them the whole year 😱🤣 even though he knows I’m very traditional and strict only making these during the Holidays, so this might be the best edible gift ever 😅 too bad it won’t be for this year since the doctor has put him on a diet since he has to lose 15kg bc he’s becoming very overweighted 😔 I know he loves and enjoys everything yummy; savory or sweet, so I really hope he manages to get back to a healthy weight… I really want to make it just to show my love for him and thank him for his unconditional love and support all my life. Daddy, I love you - when you reached the goals the doctor has set this’ll be my reward to you for all the hard work you did to get there and to make up for all the lost treats during… ❤

    Oh, my. Gingerbread is my favorite food group! When I was a kid, my mother made a gingerbread cake that I just loved. No frosting or powdered sugar in it; she’d serve it warm and we’d cut it open and spread a little butter on it. That was heaven for me! If I were to do a frosting, I’d probably go with a cream cheese frosting instead of buttercream.
    My favorite gingerbread as an adult has Guinness in it for an extra depth of flavor. The combination of a stout beer with the molasses and spices is just wonderful.

    I grew up in Amish country PA Lancaster county and we had gingerbread cake like that and it was served with a lemon like a lemon curd on the top it was absolutely fabulous wish I had the recipe for it I bet you would love it since you said you love the addition of lemon zest try it sometime instead of the sweet icing I think you'll really love it another way the Amish eat it is with applesauce over the top and that also is delicious

    To give a distinct look to her ginger or spice cakes, my Mom would lay an open patterned lacy crocheted doily on top of her cake. She would gently sift a light layer of powdered sugar over the doily. Then she would carefully lift the doily leaving behind a distinct pattern.
    I have used my cut out lacy paper snowflakes capturing the same effect. I imagine that you could use the cut out silhouette of any seasonal or theme design, even words or names. I have also used those paper doilies.
