Gingerbread House Dough

The recipe is great except that the ingredients left out ginger and put in too much cinnamon. It should have called for 2 Tablespoons ground ginger and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. When I made those changes, it made wonderful gingerbread of the perfect consistency for making large walls for a gingerbread house.
