Confectioners Sugar Icing


Confectioners sugar icing can be whipped up in just a few minutes and can be used for a variety of applications. It's best used to frost certain types of cookies, but it can be used to drizzle over cookies, cakes, quick breads, etc. You can dye it using food coloring or concentrated food coloring pastes for ultra vibrant color. Use this icing when frosting Ella's White Sugar Cookies and Gingerbread.

Confectioners Sugar Icing

4 cups confectioners sugar
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract or pure almond extract
4 tbsp. milk

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, extract and milk. Mix until uniform in consistency; you may have to add a bit extra milk to loosen the consistency. Dye using food coloring, if desired.

Frost your cookies!
