Glossy Sugar Cookie Icing (that hardens)

Step 1

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.

Step 2

For flooding and dipping, use a consistency that sticks well to your spoon and icing 'drops' off slowly.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
