In the film The Brothers Grimm, a nightmarish twist on the Gingerbread Man appears. A young child is splashed with mud and the mud steals the child's eyes, nose and mouth. It then forms a small mud body with the child's stolen features for a face. The creature grabs the child and absorbs her into itself. It runs off yelling, "You can't catch me; I'm the Gingerbread Man!" Cream the butter and sugar, then add egg and vanilla. You can use a stand mixer or a handheld beater, as I have done;To make things really easy, you can use writing icers to decorate your gingerbread men. These come ready made, and are a fun and easy way for kids to add buttons, eyes, mouths etc. If you have icing writers they’re a simple way of adding mouths, eyes etc, otherwise mix around 1/2 a cup of icing sugar with a teaspoon or so of water and mix it together. You want it to be runny enough that you can pipe it, but not so runny that it won’t hold it’s shape on the cookie. And finally, there’s a job that everyone will enjoy – decorating the gingerbread men! Whether your’re using icing writers or homemade icing, or just adding smartie buttons, this is a fun job to do together at Christmas time.
