Leaner Creamer Mini Gingerbread House Mug Topper!
This holiday season, WOW your guests with these absolutely ADORABLE mini gingerbread houses to garnish their mugs! A little time and effort pay off for these gluten and lactose free decorations. We used Torani's Spiced Chai to compliment our little houses. Torani Chai offers the natural goodness and flavor you crave in a chai!!
This recipe will give you PLENTY of gingerbread dough to work with, so feel free to make other delicious baked confections like cookies or cakes! Because this dough does not contain raw eggs, we even added some of the leftover dough to a batch of vanilla cashew ice cream - INCREDIBLE!!!
Enjoy the holidays - best and warmest wishes from your friends at Leaner Creamer!
