Gingerbread House for The Night---made Gingerbread House Made by Children
1.
Parents are needed to help draw out the desired house drawings,
2.
During the period, you can ask your children for their opinions.
3.
Then ask the children to help cut out the "house";
4.
Prepare a medium-sized basin, put all the ingredients into the basin, and then slowly knead it into a smoother dough with your hands. This requires a process. There are a lot of materials, so take your time;
5.
After kneading, put it in the refrigerator to chill for one hour to loosen the dough;
6.
Spread a cookie sheet the size of a baking tray on the chopping board, take out a part of the loosened dough and place it on the cookie sheet;
7.
First, press the dough into a uniform thickness by hand;
8.
Use a rolling pin to roll into a dough piece with a thickness of about 0.3-0.4 mm;
9.
Put different house materials on the patch respectively;
10.
Use a knife to carve out the shape along the edge of the house and take out the excess dough;
11.
Then carefully lift the biscuit paper and spread it on the baking tray, and use a fork to make rows of small holes for easy baking until evenly;
12.
Preheat the oven at 180 degrees and bake for 12-15 minutes, depending on the size of the biscuits, so if the biscuits are too small, you need to look at them by the oven;
13.
To make the frosting, mix the egg whites, powdered sugar and appropriate amount of lemon juice with a manual whisk. The amount of lemon juice determines the consistency of the frosting. It is recommended to put less lemon juice when it is sticky to make it sticky. The snow on the house can be thinner, and you need to add more lemon juice;
14.
To stick to the house, take two walls, apply frosting on both the bottom and sides with a brush, and stick to the position where the base needs to be placed;
15.
After the frosting has solidified, it will stick to other parts in turn;
16.
Then wait for the frosting to solidify before sticking to other parts in turn;
17.
You can make some decorations on the house. I gave the baked decorative colored beans at home to the children to decorate the house;
Tips:
The mother is nagging:
1. I don't know if it is whimsical or not. After finishing this house, I will always think of the house where the bald head is forced to live. Maybe someday we will force the bald head to have a house haha;
2. There is a particularly important thing to nag, the dough must be rolled on the biscuit paper, so that you don't need to move the biscuit after the shape is cut, and you can bake it directly, which completely ensures that the house will not be deformed;
3. If it is made according to my drawings, there will be a small piece of dough that can be used to make gingerbread men. We made some, and it entered a kid’s belly without decorating the frosting!
4. When you first started to knead the dough, the kneading hands were sticky and uncomfortable. At this time, be sure to hold on, and knead slowly, it will look good;
5. Where you need to use the knife, you must explain the usage to your child in particular. If you are not at ease, do this part yourself.
