Ingredients
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.
Whisk salt, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, flour, and baking soda together in a medium bowl; set aside.
Beat butter and brown sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add molasses and eggs; mix until blended.
Stir the dry ingredients into the molasses mixture until just combined. Gradually stir in the hot coffee until smooth. Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
Cook’s Note
This batter also bakes beautifully in a 10- to 12-cup Bundt pan. Grease and flour the pan well, bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 to 50 minutes, and cool 10 to 15 minutes before unmolding.
