Instructions
Before you begin, make sure that you have all the ingredients and supplies that you need. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a baking sheet with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the molasses, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves and mix until combined. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Add the water and mix until the dough begins to come together.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until it is smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out the pieces of the house using different cookie cutters. Place the pieces on the baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
Once the pieces are baked, let them cool completely before assembling the house. Assemble the house following the instructions on the package. Once the house is assembled, use the royal icing to pipe details and decorations. Use candies and other decorations to make the house look festive.
