Gingerbread With Nutmeg Sauce Recipe


Gingerbread With Nutmeg Sauce Recipe
This is a comfort food from my childhood. Mom always made it and it's not complete without the nutmeg sauce. No whipped topping on my gingerbread! Definitely a fall dessert.

Now my mom made the gingerbread with caramel sauce AND she toped it all with whipped cream. I love the flavor of fresh nutmeg. I 'll have to give this a try. Thank you for the post.
