FHE Refreshments
Miniature Gingerbread House
7 graham crackers
Frosting for glue (recipe below)
Assorted small candies for decorating
Ribbon
Frosting
1/2 pound confectioner's sugar
3 tbs. butter/margarine
1/2 tsp. Vanilla
1 1/2 - 2 tbs. Milk
Mix all the ingredients together until smooth and spreadable, not
runny. Add more sugar if too runny.
If you have a pastry bag, place frosting in bag and use a small tip. If
not you can use a zip lock bag cutting a small whole in the corner.
Place one graham cracker flat on the table, squeeze a little frosting
around all edges. Know you may need an extra pair of hands.
Place one cracker on each side standing up, now looks like a box with
no top. Carefully squeeze more frosting on all outside corner top
to bottom and around the bottom of the box.
Let stand for a short while to let frosting harden a little. This will
make working with the roof a little easier.
Now squeeze frosting on two of the top edges of the box and place the
last two graham crackers in a V shape on as the roof. Looks like a
triangle
on a
box now from the side. May over hang if you can get the frosting to
hold for you.
Squeeze frosting along the top of the roof where crackers join. Let
stand again until frosting hardens a little.
Now comes the fun part - with left over frosting cover the roof to look
like snow. (two sides are left open) Then squeezing small amounts on
candy place candy on the house to decorate. You can use the frosting to
add things like doors and windows. Just use you imagination.
After project is totally dry string ribbon through to open side of the
roof and hang on Christmas tree.
If you want to do this project with young children, you might want to
make the base house ahead of time, gluing the corners from the inside -
and
let
it harden. Then turn them loose with frosting and small candies to do
the decorating.
Special Note: This craft is safe to eat, but if you would like to save
your treasure for years to come you can use a spray varnish in a well
ventilated
area. (2 - 3 coats of varnish)
