2 Gingerbread Men
So, the most obvious thing to do with this very easy and simple gingerbread recipe is to make it into a little army of gingerbread people! To make your gingerbread men, you will need to take a shape cutter shaped like a person while your pastry is warm and soft. Press that in order to cut out your gingerbread into humanoid shapes, and then place in the oven.
When your gingerbread comes back out of the oven, the next step is to decorate it! This is where kids will have a whole lot of fun, so why not provide them with the tools to get creative and then let them go wild? Fun options include using smarties, gummy drops, sprinkles, icing, food glue, and syrup. The result can be a whole range of differently decorated little people, with the toppings adding to the flavor and the texture too!
