GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE RECIPE - FOOD.COM
This was my favorite dessert when I was a little girl. I can remember clearly the smell of the gingerbread cooking in the oven--even now the smell bring goose bumps. Having two brothers I had to compete vigorously for my share of seconds. If I lost, my mother would always give me her piece when the the boys weren't looking. I don't have it any longer, but I remember finding this recipe many years later on a little scrap of paper in the pages of my mother's favorite cookbook.

GINGERBREAD CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR SAUCE RECIPE - FOOD.COM
A delightful discovery I made in my Company's Coming 'Lunches' cookbook. The original recipe includes a lemon sauce, but we prefer brown sugar sauce with a generous dollop of whipped cream rather. Or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Mmm, and the smell... **Update Aug '09: Forget brown sugar sauce! Make a double recipe as a sheet cake (bake for only 20 minutes @ 325) with a double recipe of Recipe#127144! I don't know why I haven't updated this sooner -- I've been making it this way for at least the last 2 years already!!

GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE | JUST A PINCH RECIPES
This is a very old recipe given to me by a dear friend who got it from her mother, who in turn received it from her mother, well, you get the idea. It is absolutely delicious. I think the lemon sauce is the key. While baking, your kitchen smells wonderful, especially at Christmas time. It is a great addition to a brunch, as a dessert, or just with a cup of coffee. I had reservations about tempering the egg with the hot liquid, and I must admit, I still have to remove a piece of cooked egg from the sauce every now and then, but that's ok, it doesn't alter the taste one bit.
