We made our annual pepparkaka hus (gingerbread house) using a set from IKEA and leftover candy from Halloween! A few days after Halloween I went through the candy bucket and pulled out anything I thought would be good for our ginger bread house. I wanted to buy some peppermint sticks to use also, but we didn't get around to it. Oh well!
Adam doesn't like to waste frosting. So he made it snow at our house! Hahaha!!
Then I wanted to make my "clean" pumpkin bread into gingerbread. This was not super successful. Oh it's totally yummy, just not very gingerbread tasting. More like really rich spice cake. I swapped the pumpkin for applesauce, the honey for molasses and the spices for ginger and a little pumpkin pie spice. And I still put in chocolate chips! Any ideas for making it taste more like gingerbread???
