What an interesting idea! Thanks for watching! ❤️
i want to live in this gingerbread house lol
It is my dream home too! 😁
Sehr schön 🤩👍👍👍
Danke!😘
Can you show us how to make the replica gingerbread house from the Walt Disney World Grand Floridian Resort?
Can you post the templates on your blog so i can print them?
Hello! The house is fantastic, you did a great job! I have one question though, what kind of molasses did you use?
Was it the corn one? Thank you!
I use sugarcane unsulphured molasses. My favorite brand is Grandma’s. When I lived in Poland I used sugar beet molasses or honey.
I love this video, thank you so much for sharing! will definitely try it
I just have one question what substitute can be use in case I can’t find molasses?
Honey works just as well. The color of the gingerbread may turn out a bit lighter but the consistency remains the same. Happy baking!
@@cookingpolish Thank you!!!
È bellissima
Grazie! 😘
Şablonu paylaşırmışsınız ölçüleri ile teşekkürler ☺️
Oh my goodness this is lovely! How many batches of dough did you use for this recipe? I drew up a template for a house that looks like it's a similar size, and I'm trying to figure out how much I need to make 🙂.
I’m not entirely sure… hmmmm….I made two double batches first, I think that took care of the walls for the most part. Then I made another double batch for the roof and fencing. I didn’t make all the dough at once because my fridge was too full. Lol
I followed a vegan recipe and uncooked dough doesn't seem as dry as you'res. I added 1/4 cup a/p flour extra and still not much change. I hope if it's in the fridge it'll be less sticky.
Sorry, I don’t know much about vegan baking. I can only help troubleshoot if I tried the recipe myself. Good luck!👍
Hi, how thin do you roll the dough out? I have made my custom templates and really excited to start!
How exciting! Mine is a bit less than 1/4". 4mm. Good luck! 😃
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is so cool, I call
magic photoshop 😀
Absolutely amazing! What can I use to substitute the molasses in his recipe?
Honey. Use the same amount. It will turn out slightly lighter in color but it works really well in terms of texture and flavor. 👍
@@cookingpolish Thank you! Happy holidays!🎄❄️☃️
can i have the template you used?
do you have a sketch of the house you are building, can you share it please?
The excess dough that was cut off when making the walls, what happened to them? Were they tossed or reused elsewhere?
Reused to make other elements
Question: I don’t have chocolate fondant for the base. My base is white so I think it will look okay- especially with powdered sugar on top. But will the icing stick to the base?
You should be fine. Another thing you could do is spread a thin layer of royal icing all over your base with an off-set spatula. Let it dry completely. Then glue your gingerbread walls to that surface. Good luck!
@@cookingpolish brilliant! I’ll do that. Thank you! 😄
Any template or dimensions????
Can you post a template with the dimensions
I can’t find molasses anywhere in Poland. 😟
Substitute with honey. 😊 Wyjdzie jaśniejszy ale konsystencja taka sama. Wesołych Świąt!
Znajdziesz w marketach typu carrefour
About how long does it take for the windows to fully set? :)
I leave them for 2-3 hours. They are probably ready sooner than that as my marble counter is quite cool. But better safe than sorry 😉
Do you have the template posted somewhere?
where do i find the template???
Share the dimensions??
How do you get the dusting flour that you use to prevent sticking off of the dough @ 3:50 --> 3:51 ? I made a gingerbread house and left on the dusting flour which made the final product look chalky.
Hmm…Did you use my dough recipe? I never had this issue. If you dust too much then the dough won’t absorb all the extra flour which may make it look dusty or chalky. Here’s how I would proactively try to avoid dusting too much, if my dough was too sticky. I think it’s likely that your kitchen is warmer than mine or perhaps the dough not chilled enough…1. Chill the dough overnight and keep it in the fridge. Don’t bring the entire thing back to room temp. Just the chunk you need. The rest stays in the fridge 2. Roll it out on the silicone mat or parchment you will use for baking the piece. Since you don’t need to move it to another surface you don’t need to use a lot of flour. It doesn’t matter if it sticks to the bottom. 3. If your kitchen is still too warm to roll out and cut the chilled dough in one step without using a ton of flour, try rolling out a big sheet of dough first, chill it for 20min, then cut out the shapes right before baking. I hope this helps. 😄 happy baking!
@@cookingpolish Thanks for the response and the helpful tips! I used another dough recipe...It had good strength after baking but stuck a bit so I was trying to watch different videos to see what I could change. Going over what you said my kitchen may have been too warm and I also let my dough get to room temp. I'll have to try this advice next time. 😁
how many milliliters are in your cup in the recipe?
250
i thought there was a pattern to be shared?
Is there anything I can use instead of molasses?
Honey. Same amount 👍
i am makeing this project for class and I really need to bake today. i would really appreciate it if you can make a template for me please.
Sorry. I don’t have templates. Good luck.
Bro I had published a blueprint with a smaller version of the house in the comments but it seems that someone deleted it
@@solaireofastora6173 can you please send them to me
@@TooTTiFruiTTi I don’t have them anymore I’m truly sorry
How thin do you roll out the dough?
Somewhere between 1/8 and 1/4" (around 5mm)
@@cookingpolish thank you!
How many cookies does this make
Depends on cookie size
That's not 6 cups of floor? Is it supposed to be 3?
Yes, it’s 6
