- 2 tablespoons ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 14 cup preserved gingerroot, finely chopped
- 14 cup candied cherry, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons ginger syrup (from preserved gingerroot)
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice, strained
- Butter a 10"x15"x1" baking pan and line it with buttered parchment or foil.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Combine flour, granulated sugar, ground ginger, and baking powder.
- Melt butter and stir into dry ingredients.
- Beat in the chopped cherries, chopped ginger, and ginger syrup.
- Put the batter in the prepared pan, spread gently, and pat the top smooth with a lightly floured hand.
- Bake 20-30 minutes, until lightly browned and firm to the touch.
- While it is baking, make a glaze by combining the lemon juice and confectioner's sugar.
