Delicious. Like gingerbread but with an undertone of honey instead of molasses. I used recipe #370653 for the mixed spice, baked it at 350 degrees F., used all regular flour (white whole wheat) but with a self-rising recipe substitute. It baked completely in an hour. It is moist and the top carmelizes delightlfully. ZWT6
