Answer 2

GINGERBREAD HOUSE, MEN, OR COOKIES

1/2 c. shortening
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. dark molasses
1/4 c. water
2 1/2 c. flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. allspice
Raisins
Candied cherries, red gum drops
Citron
String licorice
Decorator's icing

If you are using self rising flour omit salt and baking soda. If you are using quick mixing flour add 3 tablespoons milk.
Cream shortening and sugar. Blend in molasses, water, flour, salt, soda, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. Chill for 2-3 hours. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll dough 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured cloth covered board. Cut with cookie cutters or into shapes with a knife. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes. Immediately remove from baking sheet and cool. For crispier cookie roll dough 1/8 inch thick and bake for 8 minutes. Trim cookies as desired. For gingerbread men, press raisins into dough for eyes, nose, and buttons. Use bits of candied fruits and licorice for other trim. Makes 2 dozen regular cookies.

Pizza lasagna casserole. Let them put it together!
Or do mini pizzas with a pizza bar, every one make there own.

Answer 4

I'd do sugar cookies or cupcakes. You can buy a mix or the pre-mixed dough, or any simple recipe will do...just remember that lots of homemade sugar cookie recipes need to chilled before rolling and cutting. Once they are made, get lots of stuff to decorate them...THAT's the most entertaining part. Pick a theme or have a free for all! Have fun...oh...and send some to me! YUM!
