Ingredients
- Sit around a bubbling pot of this boozy, spicy sauce and dip these acorn shaped gingerbread into the sauce. If you don't have this specialty pan just make it in a 9 by 13 sheet pan and cut the cake into cubes.
- You can serve this sauce over ice-cream, with toasted nuts or gingerbread cake and custard.
- If you plan to serve it with ice cream you could stir in a 1/5 teaspoon each of ground cloves, cinnamon and allspice.
