Directions
Cookies
Heat oven to 350ºF. Combine all cookie ingredients together in a stand mixer. Roll dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper, until ½ – ¼ inch thick. Cut into desired shapes.
Remove extra dough and transfer parchment paper with cookie cutouts to a large baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes (for softer cookies) or 15-20 minutes (for gingerbread house pieces).
Cool completely before icing.
Icing
In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add powdered sugar, whipping until mixture is smooth. Add just enough lemon juice to make the icing the texture of thick paste.
Transfer to icing bags. Pipe onto cooled gingerbread.
