I found a recipe for gingerbread pudding cake that received all 5 stars from reviewers. I'm planning on trying it out for Christmas eve dinner. Will make it a little while before dinner, so we can eat it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Got the last of the Christmas goodies made yesterday but forgot to take a photo before packaging them.

I found this idea for no-bake cookies in a magazine. You take Nutter Butter cookies, dip them in melted chocolate and then using M&M's for feet and nose, some candy eyes and white chocolate melting wafers for the belly...and they end up looking like penguins! It was nice they came together quickly.

And that's it for my holiday baking stuff for this year. All done!

Sure, I'd love to share the recipe!

Gingerbread Pudding Cake

2-1/2 C. All purpose flour
1-1/2 tea. baking soda
1-1/4 tea. ground ginger
1 tea. ground cinnamon
1/2 tea. salt
1/2 tea. ground allspice
1/4 tea. ground nutmeg
1/2 C. butter, softened
1/2 C. sugar
1 large egg
1 C. mild flavor molasses
1 C. water
3/4 C. firmly packed brown sugar
1-1/2 C. hot water
1/3 C. butter, melted

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, baking soda, salt & spices in a bowl, set aside.

Beat 1/2 C. butter and sugar in another bowl at medium speed until creamy. Add egg, continue beating until well mixed. Beat at low speed, alternately adding flour mixture with molasses and 1 cup water, beating after each addition just until blended. Pour batter into ungreased 9" x 13" baking pan. Sprinkle with 3/4 brown sugar.

Combine 1-1/2 C. hot water and 1/3 C. melted butter in another bowl; carefully pour over top of batter (Do not stir.) Bake 40-55 minutes or until gingerbread is cracked on top and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm with ice cream, if desired.

Note: If you want to see the recipe reviews, this recipe is by Land O' Lakes. Normally I would feel weird pouring the water/butter on top of the batter, but my mom used to make pudding cakes a lot, so I know it works out well, even though it seems really strange. Please bear in mind, I haven't tried this recipe yet, so I can't really endorse it. However, I can't imagine it not being delicious, though.

It's been a while since I made a pudding cake, but the chocolate one I've made in the past included the bit about pouring water over the batter so this makes sense to me.

It sounds great, thanks for sharing the recipe!
