Gingerbread house

Start a new Christmas tradition by bringing the whole family together to build your very own Gingerbread House!

To join in with Jennifer, the ingredients you will need are 250g unsalted butter, 200g dark brown sugar, 7 tablespoons of golden syrup, 600g of plain flour, 2 teaspoons of bicarbonate of soda, and 4 teaspoons of ground ginger. You will also need icing for constructing, and a selection of sweets to decorate.

In terms of kit you will need kitchen scales, baking tray, greaseproof paper, a knife, cookie cutters, a template (our house will be made of 6 panels in total, a front, a back, two sides and two roof panels), a bowl, a saucepan, and a spoon.
