Sugar Cookie Icing Recipe
Soft, sweet, and perfect for decorating. These sugar cookies are easy to make and are perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Confectioners sugar (powdered sugar)
- 1 tbsp Milk
- 2 tsp Corn syrup
- 1/4 tsp Almond extract (or other extract flavor)
- Desired food coloring
Instructions
- Add the confectioners sugar, milk, corn syrup, and extract flavoring into a medium sized bowl. Use a stand mixer or beaters to mix at high speed until fully combined (about 2 minutes).
- I you want different colors, evenly divide the icing mixture among different small bowls. Add the desired food coloring to each bowl of icing mixture. Mix until the color has been evenly distributed.
- You're done! If you want to paint the icing on with a food-safe brush, the bowls should work great. If you want to apply the frosting using a piping bag, you place a sandwich bag or piping bag inside of a tall cup as shows below. This makes it easy to pour the icing into the bag.
