What is your best, easy gingerbread house recipe?

For easiest ';gingerbread houses,'; you can use graham crackers (regular or chocolate), frosting from a can (colored with bit of food color if you want), and bags/boxes of candies and cookies from the grocery store for embellishments.





The graham crackers can also be ';glued'; to a upside-down box bottom for even more quickness and stability, especially if you want a larger house (..remember to cut holes in the box though if you'll want window or door ';openings';). Btw, the best way to cut graham crackers if you need to make pieces fit, is to do it slowly with a serrated knife.





Cheap kits for piping the frosting can be bought at craft stores or maybe the grocery, or you can use a knife etc. to spread where needed.





I also saw a kit with actual gingerbread (plus decorations) at Safeway the other day I believe (near the bakery), and that would be another way to go for quick ones.





If you're looking for making real gingerbread recipes for your houses though, there are lots of them listed in this link (some will be too hard to easily eat later if that matters, or may have ingredients in the recipe that wouldn't be tasty):
