Easter Peeps Graham Cracker Houses

In a glass bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add egg whites and mix, adding water a little at a time until you reach a very thick consistency. Put icing in a zippered plastic bag and cut off the corner. This will allow you to squeeze out a line of icing for assembly and decorating.

To build a graham cracker house, start with 3 graham crackers. Cut each one in half with a sharp knife to make six squares.

Cut one graham cracker square in half. Discard one half and cut the remaining piece into a triangle.

Using the icing glue (or a hot glue gun), assemble the three walls of the house using three of the squares of graham crackers.

Add the triangle piece to the top of the back wall of the house to create the roof.

Use the two remaining cracker squares to form the roof.

Allow graham cracker houses to dry and completely set up for 2-3 hours before decorating.

Try using frosted mini-wheat cereal to give that snow-kissed glow to your roof.

Use other cereals and candies to brighten up the houses.
