Gingerbread Cabin Ghostly Gingerbread Cabin

Christmas shouldn't have a monopoly on gingerbread houses. The color of gingerbread fits beautifully with the colors of Halloween, and there's plenty of candy for decorating. Let's make a haunted gingerbread cabin!

Ingredients & Materials:

• Flour, sugar, molasses, salt, spices, shortening, eggs -- for gingerbread
• Royal icing -- I use meringue powder with powdered sugar & water; easier than homemade
• Cardboard round (9-12") for the base. Make your own from a sturdy box, or buy from a baking supply store
• Foil to cover base
• Pastry bags and tips for decorating with royal icing
• Food color (paste or powder) for coloring icing. A little black made the grayish base color
• Candy, whole spices and/or seeds for decorating
