ROYAL ICING "GLUE":

3 egg whites
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 lb. powdered sugar

Place all ingredients in a clear bowl and beat on high until stiff. Add a little extra powdered sugar, if it is not stiff enough. Keep covered in a grease-free bowl to prevent hardening.

CANDY SUGGESTIONS:

Red hots
Candy corn
Smarties
Life savers
Necco wafers
Snocaps
Mini-candy canes
M&M'S®
Gum drops
Sprinkles

TO ASSEMBLE: "Glue" sides to inside edges of ends. Put glue on roof edges of ends. Place roof panels on roof edges. Let it set until hardened. Glue bottom edges to a styrofoam plate. OPTIONAL: Frost the plate first to give the appearance of snow. Decorate creatively!

SUGGESTIONS: Andes candies make a great door. Gummy bears or Teddy Grahams for "inhabitants."

A 16 oz. box of graham crackers yields a maximum of 6 houses.
