Description

I found some old-time gingersnap cookies in the grocery store the other day and decided I HAD to buy them. So I crushed them up, added them to my pound cake batter and ended up with heaven. They taste kind of like a giant, sticky, fresh cinnamon roll with gingersnap cookies mixed in. I made these in my mini-bundt cake pan. (I also made lemon raspberry ones, those are the other flavor.) Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CAKE:
  • 3 sticks Margarine
  • 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
  • 3 cups Sugar
  • 6 whole Eggs
  • 3 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Crushed Gingersnap Cookies
  • _____
  • FOR THE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:
  • 16 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
  • 1 stick Butter
  • 4 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees for a bundt cake, or 300 degrees for a loaf or mini cakes.

In a mixer, cream together the cream cheese and margarine. Add sugar, then eggs, then flour. Add vanilla and beat until mixture is creamy with no lumps.

Stir in crushed gingerbread cookies, then set aside. Spoon into your greased and floured desired pan. Bake for about 75 minutes for a bundt cake, 45 minutes for a loaf, or 30 minutes for mini bundt cakes. To check for doneness, stick a toothpick in and if it comes out clean, it’s done.

To make the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter together until creamy. Slowly add in sugar, then vanilla. Beat on medium-high speed until frosting is creamy with no lumps. Frost cool cakes or melt for 30 seconds and drizzle over the cakes.
