Gingerbread House
I came across this picture last year but didn't get the directions.
So we came up with our own.
Use your favorite gingerbread recipe or use
Betty Crocker Cookie Gingerbread mix.
Mix together ingredients and let dough rest for 30 minutes.
Roll out and cut dough with a nonstick pizza cutter.
Bake on parchment paper.
Cool completely and store in a air-tight container for 24 hours.
Assemble Houses with Royal Frosting.
(3 egg whites, 1 pkg. confectioners sugar &
1/2 tsp. cream of tarter.)
The houses can be what ever size you want!
For a mug I measured 3x3 for front & back with the roof included.
The door way is 1 3/4 x 1/2 inch.
(this can vary on the size of mug)
The sides are 2x3.
The roof is 2 1/2 x 3 1/2.
Make designs with your frosting or add crusted candy canes.
You can be as creative as you want for decorating your house.
Have fun!
