This is a special treat my mother used to make us in her æbleskiver pan. You can use mini-muffin pans as well. Her grandmother used to make these when she went to visit, so it’s an old recipe.
This recipe makes for 24 mini muffins.
Preheat your oven to 400°F and grease your pans.
Sift together 2 cups flour with 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1 teaspoon ginger and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons softened butter. 
Add in 1 cup dark molasses and 2 eggs. Blend well.
It should look like some form of prehistoric tar deposit. Bubbles included.
Add in flour mixture, as well as 1/2 cup sour milk (milk with 1/2 teaspoon baking soda stirred in) or 1/2 cup buttermilk.
Mix it up. 
Spoon into mini-muffin tins, or half-fill small muffin tins and bake for 15 minutes or until puffy and brown. Let cool.
Store in an airtight container. If they last that long.
This is what the æbleskiver ones come out like. Round gems.
