2 min read
So it is no wonder that during our research we came across original construction plans for gingerbread houses from well-known architecture offices such as Graft Architects, Sauerbruch Hutton or Bundschuh Architects. These were published, among other things, online in the Süddeutsche Zeitung and in the Spiegel - ready to be recreated. And so that you have the perfect building material available, find the right recipe here!
Ingredients for the dough:
250 gr of honey
100 gr of sugar
125 gr of butter
500 gr of flour
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 pack of ginger bread spice
1 tablespoon of cocoa
1 egg
Preparation:
First bring the honey, sugar and butter to the boil in a saucepan and then let them cool in a mixing bowl. Mix the flour, baking soda, gingerbread spice and cocoa and add to the honey mixture. Add the egg and mix everything with the dough hook of a hand mixer until you receive a smooth dough. Let it rest for 2 hours. Then roll out the dough on a floured work surface and cut out the required pieces. Bake on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 180 ° C (fan oven 160 ° C) on the middle rack for 12-15 minutes.
