Isn’t gingerbread just one of the best Christmas flavors? I love this time of year and all the seasonal flavors that come with it! Gingerbread, eggnog, peppermint, pomegranate, orange – some of the best! This moist Gingerbread cake recipe is laced with all the best spices and it’s brimming with robust flavor! And of course, we couldn’t leave out the cream cheese frosting! I’m addicted to cream cheese frosting lately if you are following and haven’t noticed. It goes on just about any kind of cake and the tang of the cream cheese just balances out all the sweetness in the frosting so it’s not overwhelming.

This cake is simply dreamy and it’s perfect for the season at hand! If you are looking for a dessert to impress those you are guests or loved ones this season then don’t pass this one up! You’ll love that it’s a single layer so it’s much faster than preparing and assembling a layer cake. It’s good warm, chilled, or at room temperature. I will even wrap leftover slices in foil or plastic wrap and store them in the freezer to thaw one at a time when I need one! If you’d like to decorate with sparkling cranberries like those pictured here, just follow this link here (if you have cranberries that are too small to fit on a wire rack like mine were, just dry on a wax paper lined baking sheet). They’re a must try for your December dessert! Enjoy!
