Terrible Treats: The Witch's House



When most people think about a gingerbread house, images of Christmas and cheery snowmen seem to come to mind. Not for me. I tend to think of dark woods, witches and children being baked into terrible treats in a giant oven per the classic fairytale Hansel and Gretel. Here are some of my favorite takes on the witch's gingerbread house.

This is a cute, easy to make version.


Of course Martha Stewart has an amazing version that is elegant but perhaps harder to build.


And now for my personal favorite. This little gingerbread house has all the qualities of the season. It's a little scary, a little sweet, easy to construct (note the use of Golden Grams cereal as shingles)and looks totally cute and delicious! Go HERE for more about this wonderful house and the wonderful woman who made it!
