Good icing recipe for sugar cookies?!


Question: Good icing recipe for sugar cookies!?
I tried one in this taste of home recipe book!.
They had me put a tablespoon of vanilla extract in it!.
Which turned my icing brown so my colors didn't look right!.
It was bad!.

I looked online at a few, one had corn syrup in it and the cookies turned out really pretty!. I'd like to use a brush to paint the icing on!.

Any suggestions for a good recipe!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Sugar Cookie Icing

This icing dries hard and shiny and the colors stay bright!.
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons milk
2 teaspoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
assorted food coloring

In a small bowl, stir together confectioners' sugar, and milk until smooth!. Beat in syrup and almond extract until icing is smooth and glossy!. If icing is too thick, add more syrup!.
Divide into separate bowls for each color and add food colorings to each to desired intensity!. Dip cookies or paint them with a brush!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you can use the recipe from taste of home but use a white vanilla extract Www@FoodAQ@Com
