COOKIE DECORATING FROSTING

Steps:

• Mix together sugar, flavoring, measured water, corn syrup, and food coloring. Slowly add enough water to make frosting a spreadable consistency (should be thicker than Elmer's school glue).
• If a strong color is desired, decrease water so that the food coloring doesn't make frosting too runny. If you get the frosting too runny, add a little powdered sugar.
• Spread on cookies (add sprinkles or other toppings immediately). Allow to dry about 30 min or until no longer sticky. Will set up into a glaze so cookies won't stick together when stacked.
• This recipe makes about 1/2 cup of frosting (about enough for one color).
