1

Fit the round top to the piping bag and fill the bag with royal icing.

2

For 2 side walls, use 18 pretzel rods. For each side wall, arrange 9 pretzels rods side-by-side on the work surface.

3

Glue the rods together with thick lines of icing (build along the flat surface, not up). Let dry completely.

4

For 2 gabled walls, use 30 pretzel rods. For each gabled wall, arrange 15 pretzel rods side-by-side on the work surface. Leave the 9 pretzel rods closest to you uncut.

5

Cut each of the remaining 6 pretzel rods shorter than the one before, so that they form a triangle, with the smallest piece at the top and the largest at the base. (Tip: before gluing, cut the pretzel rods for the 2nd gabled wall to match so that both walls are the same size).

6

Glue the pretzel rods together with thick lines of icing (build along the flat surface, not up). Let dry completely.

7

For 2 roof pieces, use 8 graham crackers (and pretzel snaps for the shingles). For each roof piece, arrange 4 graham crackers side-by-side on the work surface. Glue the long sides together using a thick line of icing.

8

For the shingles, use icing to glue pretzel snaps to the roof piece in rows, starting at the bottom edge, making each layer overlap the one before to resemble shingles. Let dry completely.

9

Allow everything to completely dry.

Decorate with candy and gingerbread people. Admire and enjoy!
