Any ideas for BLACK icing?!
When decorating sugar cookie cut-outs I usually make a simple icing using milk and powdered sugar!. How can I get the color to appear black!. I've tried this before but I usually end up with a very very dark purple looking color!.
Are there any other easy and good icing recipes you recommend!? Www@FoodAQ@Com

When my children were growing up we made black bat cookies which we outlined in a deep lavender!. At Thanksgiving we made pilgrim cookies which also needed the black icing!. I never had luck attempting to make my own with the basic colors!.!.!. make a trip for the black!.
The icing recipe you are using is the same one I use as it sets up harder so the icing doesn't stick when I stack the cookies!. I warm milk in a small pan with a bit of vanilla and butter added to make powdered sugar icing!.

Black is a really hard color to make pure but I used a hell of a lot of coloring in my icing and as it dried it became darker and it now looks more black versus the purple!. You can also dip the cookies in black sanding sugar afterwards to help reinforce the black color but be careful it does stain your mouth and teeth black lol!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
