  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 ¼ cups packed brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk

Sift together flour, baking powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3
In a large bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in grated ginger root and vanilla. Beat in flour mixture alternately with milk, mixing just until incorporated. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
