Question of the Week

SUGAR COOKIE GLOSSY ICING 03/09/10

1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
assorted food colorings, if desired

In a small bowl, stir together the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until icing is smooth and glossy. (If icing is too thick, add a drop or two more of corn syrup and beat in).

Divide into separate bowls if using different colors. Add food colorings to each to desired intensity. Dip cookies, spread with a knife or paint them with a brush. Yields 12 servings. (This icing dries hard and shiny and the colors stay bright).
