I haven't made a gingerbread house for the last couple of years. So much mess and my construction skills are so lame there is always a chance that the house will come tumbling down!But this year I thought I might give it another try, mainly because I had picked up a cookie cutter set from Williams Sonoma that made me dream of a sugar covered cottage. The cutters have interlinking tabs that promised to make the house sturdy! Happy day! So here is the result. I will have to confess that the tabs needed some "shaving" to fit together as the cookie dough does swell as it cooks. Just a bit though. I don't have a steady hand so some of my lines are not too straight. But I love how cute this is!
