This is a Jamaican ginger cake. It attracted rave reviews at my church's Valentine's Day tea party. It has been a mainstay at prayer breakfasts, too.

1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
0.5 teaspoons salt
1 cup butter
1.25 cups packed brown sugar

0.25 cups grated fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch fluted tube pan, such as Bundt.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in grated ginger root and vanilla. Beat in flour mixture alternately with milk, mixing just until incorporated. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
