Plum Biercake

• 2 cups Flour
• 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt
• 1 stick Butter
• 3/4 cups Sugar
• 1 whole Egg
• 3 Tablespoons Molasses
• 1 cup German Doppelbock Beer
• 3 whole Medium-sized Plums, Halved, Pitted, And Sliced Into Thin Wedges
• FOR THE DRIZZLE:
• 8 ounces, weight White Chocolate
• 1/2 Tablespoons Butter Or Shortening

1. Note: If you can't find doppelbock (double bock) beer, use another dark, rich beer like a porter or stout.
2. Preheat your oven to 350u0b0F and grease a 9" cake pan.
3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
4. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and the sugar. Add the egg and molasses and mix well (be sure to scrape the sides of your bowl!).
5. Alternate adding increments of the flour mixture and the beer to your mixing bowl, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
6. Pour batter into your cake pan, then arrange the plum wedges in a layer on top.
7. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
8. For the drizzle, in a small, microwave-safe bowl, break the white chocolate into small pieces, and add the butter or shortening. Microwave on medium-high power in 30-second increments, stirring after each time, until just melted. Use a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate over the cake as desired.
