Here are a few pics of my gingerbread house this year complete with Mike & Ike stairs and Pull n’ Peel wreath. I should have taken some pics of my sisters houses. I try to make mine look like an ordinary gingerbread house and they do crazy things like gummy bears jumping into the house through the sunroof landing on the orphan’s. Click HERE for the recipe.
A Christmas tradition for my family is making gingerbread men/houses every year. (We will be making the houses in a few days and I’ll post them.) One year when I was away to school I made these little guys for my roommates (all 13 of them) and the group of guys we hung out with. I decorated them with frosting of all colors and made them to look like the receiver- big project but tons of fun. Today I just shaped and baked.
Here is the recipe. We triple it for the houses and then cut them out.

Combined. Shape a ball for the head and two “snakes” for the legs and arms then bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes.
Side Note: My husband hates that I center the text so I’m going to try it his way for a little while.
