Default Is homemade Gingerbread much better than store bought?

I'm estimating it'd cost about $27 to buy the ingredients I don't have
according to the recipe below. Do you think it's worth it?


$3 sifter
$6 cinnamon
$5 ginger
$5 cloves
$5 molasses
$3 buttermilk
---
$27

Cook Time : 45min
Type of Prep : Bake

An old-fashioned gingerbread recipe.

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted before measuring
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup molasses
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk or sour milk (1 teaspoon vinegar and enough
milk to
make 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup hot water

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 350°. Sift together the flour, sugar, salt,
baking powder,
baking soda, and spices. Stir in melted butter, molasses, egg,
and
buttermilk or sour milk. Beat in hot water. Pour batter into a
generously
greased and floured 8-inch square pan. Sponsored Links
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until cake springs back when
lightly touched with finger.
Serve gingerbread with whipped cream or lemon sauce.
