  • In our last two Gingerbread Showdowns, Priya and Seth faced off with Sohla and Ham for competitions of epic, exhausting - and delicious - proportions. But in our third Gingerbread Showdown, we're switching things up. The teams are joining forces to create one of the most iconic houses in all of film: the "Home Alone" house. There will be pranks. There will be chocolate wallpaper. There will be … an edible Joe Pesci with his head on fire? (What “Home Alone” house would be complete without one?) As ​​Kevin McCallister might say: Merry Christmas, you filthy animal.

      Same here! I too watched the first and second episodes. That said, they inspired me to make a Victorian style gingerbread house that I still am working on! In my opinion, these two super hero couples on NYT Cooking are full of incredible ideas! I couldn’t stop laughing through each episode, which was (and still is) so incredibly important at this historic, unbelievable and terrifying time we live in! Thank you NYT Cooking! I actually changed my carrier because of all the knowledge and step by step tutorials you have provided us… in turn woke up my love of cooking and baking!😉 Thank you 🙏🏻

      "Oh sorry, this is why you're here Priya."
      "I feel like if there is a Reddit thread about home alone. Priya is probably the moderator."

    Between the on-the-nose reality TV editing, Ham & Sohla's sheer talent, Seth's quirkiness and Priya's persistence, this was the easiest 28 minute watch I've seen on RUclips all year. Keep up the great work!

    @SnowfIake_s Год назад +319

    The editing on these videos are so good. Sohla saying that she was going to do 'Seth level of accuracy' only for him to come over, not making eye contact to tell her he had burned the hell out of the wall and if that could fix it was pure comedic gold. And also kind of akin to asking where they could hide the body LOL. Their entire dynamic and friendship is what I love about these videos and why I look forward to them every year!
    It's not Christmas until there's a new Gingerbread House vid with Sohla/Ham/Priya/Seth!! Seeing such competent and brilliant people at work is simply a delight.

Shirley's baking know-how, Abed's extensive film and tv knowledge, Annie's perfectionism, Britta's veganism and ethical food sourcing, and Troy happy to celebrate because he wasn't allowed to as a child. Jeff trying to get out of doing any work, but then getting just as obsessed as everyone else. The Dean showing up in a themed outfit and then opportunistically brushing powdered sugar off Jeff's chest. Pierce using his wealth to cheat and have it professionally done which then saves the group from Chang who tried to sabotage their efforts. #sixseasonsandabakedown
