Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 350º. Line baking sheets with parchment paper then spray lightly with cooking spray.
On a floured surface roll out the dough to about 1/4" thickness. Put rolled out dough onto a separate cookie sheet and put in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes. Use your favorite gingerbread man cookie cutter to cut out shaper (or cut to make a gingerbread house. Bake until cookies no longer look shiny, about 18-20 minutes. Let cook on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then remove to cooling racks to cool completely.
Using a mixer with a whisk attachment whip most of the powdered sugar with the egg whites and most of the lemon juice for 5 t0 8 minutes. If it is too stiff add a few more drops of lemon juice, if too runny add a little more powdered sugar. Separate into small bowls to color, color each with paste food color. Put frostings into disposable piping bags and decorate your gingerbread people. |
