Answer 1

GRAHAM CRACKER GINGERBREAD HOUSES

1 box Keebler graham crackers (makes 6 houses)
3 egg whites, room temperature
4 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. vanilla

Cut 2 long pieces and 2 short end pieces with points on end out of graham crackers. Make royal icing ("glue") by beating egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar and vanilla for 7-10 minutes until very stiff. "Glue" 2 whole graham crackers on top for roof after "gluing" the 4 pieces above together for the base of the house. Use icing for snow effect and as glue to add candy decorations (licorice, M&M'S®, etc.) to make an adorable gingerbread house.

Answer 2

Yes, I remember. Used Pillsbury white frosting to help make the pieces stick. Used all sorts of candies. And used the frosting like paste. It was alot of fun but very sweet. Gum drops, redhots, pretzles, skittles, all sorts of candy let's you be real creative.

Answer 3

Yup...I've tried it a couple times, I used frosting (I think it was just plain frosting, though they may have added something to it to make it more "glue-ish") to put it together, and then things like gumdrops, m&m's, gummy bears, and necco wafers to decorate. I love building "gingerbread" houses....hope you have fun too!

Answer 4

Well technically that would be a graham cracker house but you probably used cake icing and those little easy to stick cake decorations. I bet it was fun making those houses!!!

Answer 5

Yes, I think you have to glue them together with royal icing.
