Gingerbread Dough for Houses Recipe on Food52

Descrition:

This gingerbread dough is great for making houses. Be sure to roll it on the thicker side to keep it sturdy, and err on the side of overbaking so it stays firm and is less likely to break. While normally not a fan of shortening (team butter 100%!, I use it in this recipe because it's higher melting point makes the dough easier to handle—plus, most gingerbread houses I make aren't for eating, just for fun!
