Gingerbread House Dough

Ingredients

  • 6 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
  • 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup butter

Instructions

  • Stir together the flour, cinnamon, ginger and salt. If you have a KitchenAid stand mixer, you can mix this up in that bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the corn syrup, sugar and butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and everything is blended.
  • Pour the warm mixture into the flour mixture and mix until blended. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can mix this by hand.
  • Refrigerate the dough about an hour to cool it off.
  • Roll the dough out on parchment paper to a thickness of 1/8".
  • Cut your pieces and bake 12-15 minutes at 350F.
  • Check for air bubbles while baking and poke them with a sharp knife or fork so the pieces stay flat.
