-Christine
Gingerbread cookie ingredients:
3/4 cup unsalted butter (Room temp soft)(I'm experimenting with plant based butter, but use whatever you like)
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup Grandmas's molasses (Not in photo, because I need to restock ;)
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon allspice or cloves
1 large egg
3 3/4 cups All-Purpose Flour
Royal icing ingredients: (Recipe not pictured)
3 egg whites
4 cups confectioners sugar
Decorating supply list:
Variety of piping tips (See picture for what I'm using)
Piping bags, couplers
Parchment paper
A few scraps of cardboard (to prop up gingerbread man)
Fine point paint brushes
Sugar sifter
Aluminum foil
Modeling chocolate
Baking supply list:
Two baking sheets (have one large and one medium size on hand)
Several sheets of card-stock paper (Think postcard material)
Pencil and eraser
Craft exacto knife with extra blades
Large cutting surface (Could be butcher block, good size cutting board etc)
Paper towels
Cling wrap or cellophane
Rolling pin
Measuring Cups and measuring spoon set
(Last Picture)
Mixing bowls
Spatulas
A variety of food colors (These don't need to be quantities pictured... I buy in bulk. Food colors bought at the grocery also work, but picking up some true black food coloring from a baking supply store would be a good idea!)
Either a hand held mixer or counter top mixer (If you don't have either you can mix by hand, it just takes longer. There are inexpensive hand mixers at Walmart that will do the job for around $25 (That's what I used when I very first started baking :D

Iβm going to try to make a vegan version of this! :)

2020-01-02 18:37:12 +0000 UTCDoes anyone know of any candy melts that don't have palm products in them? Thanks!
Melissa Santucci
2020-01-01 23:35:06 +0000 UTCi use earth balance plant "butter" in a cake a few days ago and it is fine. I bake with margarine as my preference to be honest in everything. I have never noticed a difference other than it being a consistency when baked that I like better. I prefer it in icing as well but it is much softer than using butter I found. I am not sure how well it will work in royal icing

2020-01-01 20:36:13 +0000 UTCThank you for sharing the supply list. Does plant butter work just as good as butter butter?
Lara Relyea
2020-01-01 13:11:11 +0000 UTCso I wasnt able to find modelling chocolate but the recipe from Christine's book is 2 cups candy melts chips and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup. You want to get candy melts vs choc vs chocolate chips.heat to 110 degrees, and stir until it forms a ball. Seal tightly until cooled then break off what you need. I got the candy melts from amazon in black and white.

2020-01-01 00:42:41 +0000 UTCThank you Sarah Kane, I read the comments to see if anyone shared a vegan recipe.π

2019-12-30 19:41:34 +0000 UTCOh and for large gingerbread men I generally bake for 4 minutes at 180 c then turn and bake for another 4 minutes but just keep an eye on them
Sarah Kane
2019-12-28 18:32:37 +0000 UTCOk so ingredients: 1 1/2 cups icing sugar 1 cup dairy free margarine/baking spread (I use stork) 1/4 non dairy milk 1tsp vanilla 1tsp cinnamon 1tsp mixed spice 2tsp ginger 2 1/2 cups plain flour 2 tbsp cornstarch 1 tsp baking soda 1tsp cream of tartar Beat together spread, sugar, milk and vanilla Mix in the dry ingredients Chill overnight or for 2-3 hours at least I'm going to be making my dough ahead of time because it's much easier to work with if it's chilled overnight because it's very soft. I think I'll leave out the baking soda if there's none in Christine's recipe just to make sure it doesn't puff up too much. I might also ad a couple of tbsp of treacle for colour because my cookies are quite pale in colour if you want to do that I would advise adding it before during the first step.
Sarah Kane
2019-12-28 17:43:16 +0000 UTCThank you for doing this! So excited have all my ingredients ready to goπ€π₯£Itβs my birthday Sunday so instead of a cake Iβm considering these special bday cookies. The hubs will be home to watch and help tooπ₯°
Micheline
2019-12-28 07:00:24 +0000 UTCWould love this vegan recipe too if you donβt mind!! My partner is vegan and I donβt want him to be left out π

Channon Rose
2019-12-27 00:53:29 +0000 UTCI can send you my gingerbread recipe tomorrow when I get into work π it's a super simple recipe and I've used it to make simple gingerbread houses so it should work fine, I might leave out the baking soda tho so it doesn't puff up too much.
Sarah Kane
2019-12-27 00:37:17 +0000 UTCI added more than listed but it gets lost still. And that doesn't affect the texture

2019-12-26 04:25:02 +0000 UTCMy husband and I will be in Tennessee visiting family. Fingers crossed the Internet connection there can handle this. If not Iβll be trying it the following week.
Lindsey
2019-12-25 01:15:06 +0000 UTCJust made cookies using this recipie and the texture isn't very good...its actually quite dense. And the ginherbread flavor doesn't pack a punch the way I like...how can I fix this?
Jessica Fisher
2019-12-24 23:49:20 +0000 UTCWoo-hoo! I'll be gathering supplies for this one. A bake-along is a wonderful idea.
Anjanette Deason
2019-12-24 20:46:21 +0000 UTCI am also a pastry chef!!! YAY. and its the molasses itself Im allergic to. Ginger, nutmeg, allspice etc im all fine with all of those. Yeah I have weird allergies... molasses, dill and cephlapods lol
Erin Rabideau
2019-12-24 19:43:39 +0000 UTCDoes anyone know any good alternatives for us vegans? I plan to use earth balance butter which is plant based but not sure if flaxseed meal and water will suffice for an egg replacement for this project?
Channon Rose
2019-12-24 05:54:46 +0000 UTCwhat is it you're allergic to? I'm a pastry chef who specialized in 'allergen-free' baking for a while and maybe I can help you out? I've honestly never heard of someone allergic to molasses and I'm intrigued to see if I can help you find substitutions! xo
Lisa Wolf
2019-12-24 00:17:59 +0000 UTCWeβre making cookies or a house? π»
Mandy Spitzer
2019-12-23 20:40:51 +0000 UTCI am excited to watch this ! :) I did have a question though for follow along, for someone who is allergic to Grandmas molasses but loves the taste, what are some substitutions (even faux flavorings) that one could use in lieu of molasses to get a similar earthy distinct taste that molasses gives? Just curious. Thanks and look forward to watching the stream!
Erin Rabideau
2019-12-23 17:24:39 +0000 UTCi'm SO excited for this! i've always wanted to watch you do this step by step. can't wait to get baking with everyone π

Christine McConnell
2019-12-22 19:59:27 +0000 UTCHello! This makes quite a few! I would estimate around 24 depending on the size of your cookies! and they are for both decoration AND eating! :D
Christine McConnell

melissa
2019-12-22 18:43:52 +0000 UTCHas anyone else in Tier 4 or above received their yearly Christmas gift this month? I sent her a DM earlier, but I don't think she will get a chance to respond. I know she's busy right now, but I don't know what the status is. Thanks!
Chris Cornett

cassandra staples
2019-12-22 18:32:40 +0000 UTCI am so excited for this! I've already told the family, so they are fully prepped to stay out of the kitchen! Lol I did have a few questions. How many cookies does this recipe make? And is it for decorations or for eating?

Alexa Z.
2019-12-22 18:23:08 +0000 UTCI'm so excited for this! I'm ordering all the items I don't have right now. My sister-in-law passed away over the summer and she was a crazy talented baker. I have a lot of her tools now. This will be like I'm baking with her. Thank you so much for this opportunity!
