Who created the gingerbread man originally?

Answer 1

To make a gingerbread man from scratch you mix 6 cups all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking SODA, 1/2 teaspoon baking POWDER, 2 sticks unsalted butter, 1 cup dark brown sugar, 4 teaspoons ground GINGER, 4 teaspoon ground CINNAMON, 1 and1/2 teaspoons salt, 2 large eggs, and 1 and 1/2 cups of molasses all in a bowl, and mix it thoroughly. then you chill it in a refrigerator for 1 hour. once it is chilled take it out and roll it on a floured surface. then on a piece of wax paper, draw the outline of your gingerbread man. then place you design on your dough and cut it out with small knife. then you transfer it to a cookie sheet, then put it in an oven for 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 mins. then take it out and let it cool. then u decorate it. you can use regular icing 4 this. but if you wnt realy STICKY icing... mix 5 cups powdered sugar with 3 egg whites, and mix it around until frothy.
