Icing That Hardens! Perfect for sugar cookies! It’s a sweet icing that dries firm and glossy and doesn’t run or smear when layered on top of other cookies. (Think holidays!)
Ingredients
- 2 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar (the sugar must be sifted)
- 1 Tbsp milk (adding in more if needed for proper spreading consistency)
- 1 Tbsp light corn syrup
- 1/4 tsp almond extract (you can also use 1/2 tsp vanilla in place of the almond)
- Food coloring (your choice of color)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the confectioners’ sugar with milk (start with 1-2 Tbsp. You will likely need more milk for the perfect spreading consistency).
- Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until the icing is smooth and glossy (if the icing is too thick, add in a small amount more of corn syrup).
- Divide into as many separate bowls as you wish for different colors.
- Add in food coloring until desired intensity is achieved.
- Paint the icing over the cookies using a brush, or dip edges of cookies into the icing.
- Allow to set on waxed paper.
