My Grandma Mary used to make these cupcakes. I asked her for the recipe so that I could make them for myself. Grandma told me specifically to use the molasses with the purple label with the rabbit on it. If I remember right, this recipe makes more like 18 cupcakes instead of 12.
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. sugar
1 c. canola oil
1/2 c. molasses
2 c. flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 c. boiling water
1. Beat eggs well, add sugar, oil, and molasses.
2. Add dry ingredients sifted together.
3. Add water last.
4. Put in muffin cups. Bake at 350 F for 30 min.
Lemon Frosting
1 c. powdered sugar
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. milk
1. Mix with hand mixer.
