How Do You Make The Best Sugar Cookie Icing?
This recipe always gets rave reviews. It’s no surprise, because the icing has a great taste, and it makes the cookies look like they’re from a designer cookie store! The icing is glossy, the colors are bright, and it is fantastic for making your cookies really stand out in the crowd. In a small bowl, stir sugar and milk until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and almond (or vanilla) extract. You may need to adjust the quantities of milk or corn syrup slightly to get the consistency you want. Add slowly until it is just right. Divide the icing into separate bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl until it has reached your desired shade. Dip the cookies in the icing, or use a brush to paint it on. Painting is especially good to do detailing, like adding a carrot nose to a snowman, or making a beautiful butterfly cookie! Try this icing with my recipe for Yummy Soft Sugar Cookies! They are very tasty, stay soft, and pair very well with this icing. Link found below.
