Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ tbsp corn syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ tbsp cold milk or water

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 or water if too thick; it should flow slowly off the spoon while leaving a thick layer.
  4. If using multiple colors, divide the icing into smaller bowls and mix in gel food coloring to achieve vibrant shades.
  5. Decorate your cookies with the icing and let them set at room temperature before storing.
