Gingerbread is a sweet that can take the form of a cake or a cookie in which the predominant flavor is ginger.
As a cookie, gingerbread can be made into a thin, crisp cookie (often called a ginger snap) or a softer cookie similar to the German Lebkuchen. Gingerbread cookies are often cut into shapes, particularly gingerbread men.
A variant dough is used to make gingerbread houses à la the "witch's house" encountered by Hansel and Gretel. These, covered with a variety of candies and icing, are a common Christmas decoration.

My cat was meowing for raw gingerbread dough (???) so I gave him some and he threw up under the Christmas tree. A lovely holiday moment.
