Seeing in the New Year, Laing Style


If only we could make Gingerbread houses without all that tiresome baking (it IS rather hot here). And if they were chocolate flavoured, that'd be good. Oh, and miniature.

That's when I suddenly realised that it was time to follow the age-old tradition, in my family since early 2009, of making WAFER HOUSES. We bought cheap wafer biscuits, and royal-icinged them together. I was happy with that, but the team decided they'd look better with smarties on them too. We made a small village and left them to set until after dinner. Then they were eaten.

To be honest, not that delicious - the icing made the crisp wafers not as crisp. But hey.
