  More than half a month before Christmas, Christmas trees are everywhere in the shops on the streets, and Santa Claus brings the festive atmosphere.The gingerbread house is the most picturesque and festive food of Christmas, made with ginger-scented biscuits made from the parts of the house and then decorated with sugar cream, the gingerbread house is like a fairy-tale cottage full of dream colors.It took me a few hours to make two gingerbread houses with my daughter, the first time I made them on a small scale, the miniature version of the cottage made our production a little uncomfortable, but the process of making them by hand with my daughter was fun, and I think it's a good memory for her and me.These two gingerbread houses are the only food that can be eaten without taking a picture, they are so beautiful, they are on the table and everyone feels satisfied and enjoys it.

5. Cut each part of the gingerbread house drawing one by one into a paper model.

6. (I'm lazy to use yours, you can also design it according to your preferences)

7. A loose dough is placed on the board and crushed into thin slices of about 0.3 cm thickness.

8. Put the cut paper model on the panel, and use the knife to cut the gingerbread roof from the edge of the model.

Steps 9 to 12

9. The sliced slices are carefully placed flat on the grill, drill some holes with a fork, brush a layer of egg yolk, set for about 20 minutes, brush another layer of egg yolk, put in a preheated oven of 180 degrees, the middle layer is baked for 10-12 minutes.

10. Add a large slice to the base of the gingerbread house, do the same, then put it in a 180 degree oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes.

11. Making protein sugar cream: mix protein and sugar powder and add lemon juice, and then continue to spread.

12. (Sugar cream can be made a little less in proportion, and when it is not enough, it is added again, the sugar cream used for gluing needs to be thickened by adding a little more sugar powder, and the sugar on the roof needs to be diluted by adding a little more lemon juice.)

13. The baked biscuits can be assembled after cooling, first fixing the bottom of the gingerbread house with a sticky sugar cream.

14. Let the bottom sugar cream dry through the house and then put it on the roof and the door.

15. After the construction of the house is completed, a slightly thinner layer of sugar cream is applied to the roof, and after the thin layer of sugar cream dries, a slightly thicker box of sugar can be used for simple decoration.

Handy cooking tips

  1.The gingerbread house can be designed according to your favorite room type, if you also want to use the drawings in your blog, it is recommended to copy a little bigger, first measure the size and then start making, the size is too small will not work well.2. When cutting the sheet according to the drawing, I first cut it with a cutting knife, and later switched to a slightly larger knife cutter, the cutting method is better than cutting, and the sheet is not easily deformed.3. Sugar cream is very simple to make, so don't mix too much at once, it's better to mix a little bit, it's thicker and thinner, it's better to master.4. This amount I made two small gingerbread houses and some small biscuits.5. The gingerbread must be loose for a while before baking, otherwise it will be easily deformed, and it will be more difficult to assemble parts that are unevenly baked.6. When assembling the base of the gingerbread house, wait for the sugar cream to dry through the base and then build the roof, preferably by hand.
