Gingerbread From Cake Mix

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 Fahrenheit. Prepare a loaf pan with butter and parchment paper.

Step 2

In the bowl of your mixer combine the boxed cake mix and remaining dry ingredients: flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and grated ginger.

Step 3

Whisk until thoroughly combined.

Step 4

Add the remaining ingredients: yogurt, milk, molasses, and eggs.

Step 5

Mix on medium speed, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed with a spatula, for about one minute or until completely combined.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for approximately 1 hour.

Step 7

When it is done the side will look toasted and the center will spring back with a gentle touch.

Step 8

Meanwhile, prepare your icing by combining cream cheese, milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a pourable bowl (such as a liquid measuring cup).

Step 9

Mix icing thoroughly with a whisk or fork.

Step 10

When the cake has cooled to the touch, drizzle the desired amount of icing over the top.
