Yield:
Serves 8-10Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup cornmeal

1/2 cup molasses
4 eggs, well beaten
1/2 teaspoon each: ground ginger, cinnamon, and mace
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
Scald the milk, add the butter and gradually beat in the corn meal. Stir until slightly thickened. Remove from the stove and add the other ingredients, beating well after each addition.
