GINGER CREAM CHEESE ICING
From: pasquale@... (Gina Pasquale) Date: Thu, 18 May 1995 17:10:13 GMT I tried this recipe last night and everyone wanted the recipe. So, thought I'd post. The secret is the crystallized ginger. Give it a try! Hot and Sweet Gingerbread (from "King Arthur Flour Baker's Catalogue").
Mix together 1st 4 ingredients. Then add next 3 ingredients to first mixture. Sift next 3 ingredients together in a separate bowl. Add dry ingredients to first mixture. Then stir in ginger. Pour into greased and floured 9x13" pan. Bake at 350 for ½ hour. Cool on wire rack. Frost, then chill.
Ginger Cream Cheese Icing: Beat together butter and cream cheese. Then add vanilla, then beat in sugar. Then stir in ginger.
