Hands down, my favorite part of holiday baking is the smells. Whether it's lemon and rum in my cookies or cinnamon and cloves in a cake, the house is warmed from the heat of the oven and filled with scents of sugar and spice.
Gingerbread is one of those smells for me. Soft and inviting, this delicious cake is full of all the spices that remind me of this time of year. What better way to top it off than with a bit of holiday cheer whipped up into a cloud of fluffy white on top?
