Ingredients

Gingerbread Dough

  • 180g (6oz) lightly salted butter
  • 125g (4.5oz) soft brown sugar
  • 300g (10.5oz) treacle or golden syrup
  • 1 ½ tablespoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 500g (17.5oz) plain flour

Enchanted Gingerbread House

  • 100g (3.5oz) Dessicated Coconut
  • Green Food Colouring
  • Red Food Colouring
  • White Food Colouring
  • Queen White Fondant
  • 2 White Knight Chocolate Bars
  • 3 Oreo Cookies
  • 1 Tablespoon of Hundreds & Thousands
  • Queen Royal Icing
  • Queen Silver Sugar Pearls
  • 200g (7oz) Milk Chocolate Melts

Method

Gingerbread Dough

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C (340F) with fan. Place silicon moulds onto two baking trays.
  2. Assemble mixer with the scraper paddle. Combine butter, sugar, treacle and spices into the large bowl and mix on ‘light mixing’ for 2 minutes.
  3. Reduce speed to ‘folding’ and add flour; increase speed to ‘light mixing’ and mix until mixture just forms thick dough.
  4. Using your hands press gingerbread together to make a ball. Cut ball into portions so you have enough dough for each section and press into moulds, smooth tops.
  5. Bake in oven for about 20-22 minutes swapping trays halfway through cooking until firm to touch.  Gingerbread will become firmer on cooling.
  6. Cool for 5 minutes in mould before turning out onto wire racks to cool completely.
  7. Once cooled, decorate as directed in Ann’s video. Preparation time will depend on the individual's skill level so allow several hours.
