Mini gingerbread houses

  • 4:10 Prep
  • 0:25 Cook
  • Makes 10 houses
  • Challenging

Ingredients

  • 150g butter, chopped
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup treacle
  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground mixed spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 1/2 cups Lighthouse cake, biscuit and pastry plain flour
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • Pure icing sugar, for dusting

Royal icing

  • 4 egg whites
  • 6 cups pure icing sugar, sifted
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Equipment

  • You’ll need 10, 15cm square cake boards

Method

  • 1
    Place butter, sugar and treacle in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil. Remove from heat. Stir in bicarbonate of soda. Transfer to a bowl. Cool for 20 minutes.
  • 2
    Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Sift ginger, spice, baking powder and flour into a bowl. Add half the flour to butter mixture. Stir well. Add egg, stirring to combine. Stir in remaining flour until a sticky dough forms. Divide dough in half and shape into discs. Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • 3
    Roll 1 portion of dough between 2 sheets of baking paper until 4mm thick. Cut 20, 7.5cm x 8cm rectangles from dough, re-rolling scraps. Place on prepared trays, 2cm apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and just firm to touch. Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
  • 4
    Roll remaining dough between 2 sheets baking paper until 4mm thick. Cut 20, 7cm (sides) x 8cm (base) triangles from dough, re-rolling scraps. Place on prepared trays, 2cm apart. Using a 1cm x 2cm rectangular-shaped cutter, cut a door from half of the triangles. Reserve cut-outs and any dough scraps. Bake triangles for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and just firm to touch. Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
  • 5
    Place cut-out doors on trays. Roll scraps between 2 sheets of baking paper until 4mm thick. Using assorted Christmas shape cutters, cut 10 shapes, such as trees, wreaths and snowmen. Using a 1.5cm star-shaped cutter, cut 10 stars. Place on tray, 2cm apart. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes or until golden and just firm to touch. Stand on trays for 2 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
  • 6
    Make royal icing: Lightly whisk egg white in a bowl. Gradually add icing sugar, whisking until smooth and combined. Stir in lemon juice (cover icing with a damp sheet of paper towel to prevent it from drying out).
  • 7
    To assemble: Spread about 2 tablespoons royal icing onto 1 cake board to cover. Place 2 triangles (1 with cut-out) on board, about 7cm apart, pushing into icing to secure. Spoon half the remaining royal icing into a large piping bag fitted with a 3mm plain how to gingerbread houses nozzle. Pipe icing onto edges of triangles. Attach rectangles to form a roof. Pipe royal icing along edges of house and across top of roof to resemble icicles and snow. Attach doors to house with icing. Repeat with more icing and house pieces.
