Hi Guys!
Do you ski? I do not ? So weird when you are from snowy country, no skiing, no skateboarding, no skating ????
Our town next year (February 2020) is the host of BC Winter Games, so our gingerbread competition this year set a theme on the sports.
So we made a SKI RESORT gingerbread house this year, focusing on Alpine Skiing (as one of the games that will be held on BC Winter Games).
Here are the ingredients for the cookies/house pieces!
2 flax eggs
3 1/4 c flour
1/2 c molasses (divide)
1 tsp BSoda
A pinch of salt
1 tsp each ginger powder, cinnamon powder, all spice powder
1/2 c palm sugar
8 tbsp vegetable shortening
Royal Icing:
- 1 can of aquafaba (from 540 ml canned chickpeas, aquafaba is the water)
- 7 c of icing sugar (for runny consistency), 9 c for thicker (piping)
Beat aquafaba until frothy, then beat in icing sugar 1 c at a time, until desired thickness is reached
