Cookie Frosting Recipe That Hardens Recipe For Chili

SUGAR COOKIE ICING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together 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 more corn syrup.
• Divide into separate bowls, and add food colorings to each to desired intensity. Dip cookies, or paint them with a brush.

GLOSSY SUGAR COOKIE ICING (THAT HARDENS)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift confectioners sugar and then combine with light corn syrup, milk or water, and clear extract flavoring. Stir until smooth and the icing has reached your desired consistency.
• For flooding and dipping, use a consistency that sticks well to your spoon and icing 'drops' off slowly.
• For a light glaze that is somewhat transparent, use a consistency that runs off slowly from your spoon but also leaves a good clear coating on the spoon.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

COOKIE ICING/FROSTING THAT HARDENS

Steps:

• VERY IMPORTANT; the confectioners sugar must be sifted before using.
• In a bowl beat the sifted confectioners sugar with milk until smooth.
• Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until smooth and glossy (if icing is too thick add in a small amount of corn syrup).
• Divide into as many separate bowls as desired.
• Add in different food coloring to each bowl beating/whisking until the intensity is achieved.
• Paint the icing over the cookies using a brush or dip the cookie edges into icing (this will set quite quickly).
• Place cookies on waxed paper to dry.

BUTTER ICING FOR COOKIES

Steps:

• In a saucepan, over medium heat, heat cream and butter until butter is melted. Stir in the vanilla and confectioners' sugar. Remove from heat, and beat with an electric mixer until thick and smooth.

CHOCOLATE COOKIE FROSTING

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine 1 cup powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Using an electric mixer add butter and mix well. Add additional 2 cups of powdered sugar slowly until combined as well as vanilla. Mixture will be thick, set aside. In a small pot, heat milk and 1 Tablespoon sugar on stove until warm but not hot and sugar is dissolved. While mixer is on, slowly add milk to powdered sugar mixture and blend until smooth and creamy and desired consistency. Use immediately or store in an airtight container. If storing, you'll need to whisk it up again before spreading over cookies.

SUGAR COOKIE ICING

Steps:

• Place butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. When butter has melted, whisk in remaining ingredients until very shiny and smooth (sugar has dissolved completely). Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Check consistency of icing: it should be thin enough to be pourable, but not so thin that it runs off the sides of the sugar cookie. If too thick, whisk in more water a few drops at a time. If too thin, whisk in more sugar until the icing reaches your desired consistency.
• Transfer icing to small pitcher and swirl artfully over cooled sugar cookies. Let icing cool and harden. Serve.
