Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1½ tbsp corn syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1½ tbsp cold milk or water
  • Gel food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. Sift the powdered sugar into a mixing bowl to eliminate lumps.
  2. Add corn syrup, vanilla extract, and cold milk or water; stir until smooth.
  3. Adjust consistency by adding more milk if necessary; the icing should fall off the spoon slowly but leave a thick layer behind.
  4. Divide the icing into bowls and add gel food coloring as desired.
  5. Decorate your cookies and let them set at room temperature before storing.
