In a stand mixer, cream the butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add in the molasses and eggs until combined.
Sift together whole wheat flour, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and salt.
Add the dry ingredients and buttermilk, alternating half and half to the stand mixture on the lowest speed until just combined.
Pour the mixture into a baking dish pan and spread evenly.
Take the topping dough and break apart into chunks about the size of marbles over the cake batter in a uniform pattern.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted and comes out clean.
