Ice Box Gingerbread
From Jo Annia

I am 70 years young, and back in my 20's I went to a yard sale. It was the last day for it, a big box of things was setting there and as I was looking it, he lady said if you want that box you can have, for it will save me from taking it to the dump. When I got home I found it had all kinds of old recipes in it. So I will post some of these heritage recipes.
