In a medium-size saucepan, combine molasses, butter and brown sugar. Stir over low heat until butter is melted. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs and milk. Make a well in center of reserved dry ingredients. Pour in molasses mixture and beat thoroughly. Pour into cake pan. Bake 1 1/4 hours, or until top springs back when lightly touched with finger. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Makes 8 to 12 servings. | |||
