How to Make Gingerbread House Dough Icing
- Preheat oven to [insert oven temperature, e.g., 350°F (175°C)].
- Prepare your work surface: Lightly wipe down a clean, flat surface with a damp sponge. Place a sheet of aluminum foil slightly larger than your baking sheet onto the surface. Sprinkle lightly with flour.
- Roll out the dough on the prepared foil. If the dough is too firm, microwave for 10-15 seconds at a time until pliable. Use a pizza cutter for straight lines when cutting out your gingerbread house pieces.
- Carefully lift the foil with the cut-out pieces and transfer it to your baking sheet. Use a fresh piece of foil for each roll-out.
- Bake for [insert baking time e.g., 8-10 minutes] per side, or until golden brown and firm. Let cool completely on a wire rack before assembling.
- Once cool, carefully assemble your gingerbread house, using frosting to secure the walls and roof. Hold the sides in place until dry to prevent lopsidedness.
- For the frosting: prepare your chosen frosting recipe (recipe not included here). Fill pint-size zip-lock freezer bags with frosting. Snip a small corner and decorate your gingerbread house.
- Decorate with candies and other treats. Use Rice Krispies treats, tinted green with food coloring, to create unique bushes and trees. Remember, variety in your decorations is more important than quantity!
