Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth consistency for your icing.

  2. Add 2 tablespoons of milk to the powdered sugar and whisk together until well combined. The mixture should be thick but spreadable. If needed, add an additional tablespoon of milk gradually until you reach your desired consistency.

  3. Stir in the vanilla extract to add a hint of flavor to your icing. Feel free to adjust the amount based on your personal preference.

  4. For a pop of color, divide the icing into separate bowls if you wish to make different colored icings. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and mix well until you achieve the desired shades.

  5. Once your icing is ready, it's time to bring your cookies to life! Using a small offset spatula or a butter knife, spread the icing evenly over your cooled cookies. For a smooth finish, gently shake the cookie back and forth to allow the icing to settle.

  6. Add sprinkles, edible pearls, or any decorations of your choice to further customize your cookies and make them visually appealing.

  7. Allow the icing to set for about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the thickness of the icing and humidity levels in your kitchen. Once the icing is completely dry and has set, your cookies are ready to be enjoyed!
