How to Make and Apply Sugar Cookie Icing

Easy to make, yet delicious sugar cookie icing. Add this to my melt in your mouth sugar cookie recipe for a wonderful treat.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 2 Cups Powdered Sugar
• Milk
• 1 tsp Vanilla

1. Place powered sugar in medium sized bowl.

2. Add milk one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency and stir well after each tablespoon. You don't want it too thick or too runny. After you have reached a good consistecy, add the vanilla and stir well.

3. If you want to add food coloring, seperate the icing into different bowls and add food coloring to each.

4. Next, you are ready to add the icing to your cookies. I use a regular spoon and scoop up with the back side of the spoon and smooth over the cookie. Try not to spread too close to the edge b/c the icing may spread a little more upon settling.

5. Allow to sit for a little while to dry and then enjoy =)
