1. 1

   Position the oven rack in the center of the oven.

   Mix together the molasses, sugar, and oil. In another bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper.

   Bring the water to the boil in a saucepan, stir in the baking soda, and then mix the hot water into the molasses mixture.

5. 5

   Stir in the ginger.

6. 6

   Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the batter.

7. 7

   Add the eggs, and continue mixing until everything is thoroughly combined.

8. 8

   Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 1 hour, until the top of the cake springs back lightly when pressed or a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Cool the cake for at least 30 minutes.
