To make this memorable gingerbread garage, you’ll need the following:

Gingerbread house kit

4-5 Oreo cookies

Gel food coloring

• Make sure it is not oil or liquid based otherwise it will ruin the icing

• We used red, yellow, green, black and white

Ice cream cones (“sugar” waffle style cones work best)

Royal icing

• There are a number of ways to make royal icing. Here are some YouTube links to look at for more detailed instructions

• To create gray icing, mix white and black icing

Candy from gingerbread house kit (we used mini M&M’s and candy coated sprinkles)

Candy orange slices (for track)

Rolling pin

Graham crackers (for helipad)

Hot glue gun (recommended to make the gingerbread house more stable if you won’t be eating it, otherwise use icing from the kit)

Pastry bags or piping/squeeze bottles for icing

Cutting board

Toy helicopter from the Hot Wheels Ultimate Garage

4-5 Hot Wheels cars

To get this gingerbread garage off to the races, start by gluing the house together with the hot glue gun and glue to the cardboard base. If you want your garage to be fully edible, stick the garage together with icing (warning: icing may not hold as well as glue).

Now that your garage structure is built, you can add the helipad on top so this garage is ready for plenty of epic action. Use two full squares for the top and side right angle. Then cut one diagonally for the other sides. Glue together with the hot glue gun or use icing.

While the garage and helipad dry, grab your ice cream cones to make the evergreen trees that will set the winter scene. Hold the ice cream cones at the base and cover in green royal icing using a butter knife. Slather the icing all over the ice cream cone until it looks like an evergreen tree. Set the cones aside to dry.

To truly turn this gingerbread house into a gingerbread garage, take the front door off the gingerbread house and glue perpendicular to the doorway, making it look like an open garage door. On the front of the garage, create a large garage door by piping gray icing in a rectangular shape and then line in white icing. Now it looks like this garage is ready for any miniature racer to drive right in!
