How to Make a Gingerbread Haunted House Cake with Candy Corn Cake Layers for Halloween
Ingredients and Materials:
• Gingerbread dough (youtu.be/kCduKbOlHKI)
• Black sixlets (amzn.to/2eQXOvz)
• Black Jimmies (amzn.to/2eDgkUa)
• Black sanding sugar (amzn.to/2dvhhkg)
• Black skull candy
• Black Chocolate (amzn.to/2eDgB9L)
• White Chocolate (amzn.to/2evnLxb)
• Candy Corn (amzn.to/2ervFeO)
• Mallow pumpkins (amzn.to/2ervFeO)
• Black licorice (amzn.to/2eDeMtu)
• Hershey's chocolate bars (amzn.to/2eh7ik7)
• Coffin Cutter (amzn.to/2eCYeAA)
• Yellow hard candy (amzn.to/2erz7Gl)
Procedure:
1. Roll out gingerbread dough and cut out house pieces: 4@ 4 1/2" x 5 1/4", 2@ 8" x 5, angled down to 3" at bottom. Remove "door" with a coffin cutter, remove windows with a square cutter. Create chimney with coffin cutter pieces.
2. Bake cookies in preheated oven for 8-12 minutes at 350F. Allow to cool completely (and harden if time permits).
3. Melt yellow hard candies in a preheated oven for 6-8 minutes. Once hardened and cooled, attach to the back of the windows using white chocolate. Once chocolate has hardened, turn the cookie back over and use thin strips of licorice to frame the window.
4. Using candy corn and melted white chocolate, cover the 2 halves of the roof with candy corn shingles.
5. Assemble the bottom part of the house by attaching the back and side with melted sugar. Attach the front and opposite side. Assemble the chimney. Use the melted sugar to glue the roof on the house.
6. Cover the chimney in black chocolate, then press into the sanding sugar. Do the same with the door. On the front of the door attach a chocolate skull and a door knob.
7 Dip the chimney in the sugar and attach to the roof.
8. Use black chocolate to attach black skulls to the eaves trough of the cake.
9. Pipe black spider webs with chocolate and cover in sanding sugar. Pipe 2 crosses with the chocolate as well.
10. Keep cake in fridge until you are ready to serve. It is best consumed within 2-3 days.
11. Let house harden.
