Best Sugar Cookie Icing ~ Color Flow
ingredients
3 cups powdered sugar
4 tbsp. water
1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract or other
2 1/2 tsp. corn syrup
a few drops lemon juice if desired
Mix well until the consistency of glue. Add more powdered sugar for thicker consistency. Use gel food coloring. Just smooth it on with a spatula or spoon and it also works great in a piping bag. Add your sprinkles quickly before the icing sets. Let dry for several hours before packaging. If you really want that professional look, start by outlining your images with royal icing, then use color flow to fill in.
This cookie recipe makes a great base for flavored cookies! Add different extracts, lemon, sprinkles, toffee bits, etc., to the mix! Get creative!
