One measuring cup of powdered sugar
2–3 teaspoons of dairy
Colorant for food (not required)
As a decorative accent, sprinkles
Setting Up:
Get the Frosting Ready:
Sift the powdered sugar in a medium-sized bowl to get rid of any lumps.
Stirring constantly, add the milk to the powdered sugar a spoonful at a time until the frosting is smooth and easy to spread. You may get it as thick as you like by adjusting the milk amount.
If you want the frosting to be a specific color, just add a few drops of food coloring. Be sure to mix thoroughly so the color is dispersed evenly.
Frost the Cookies: Using a small spatula or butter knife, generously coat the tops of each cookie with icing. Be sure the icing reaches all corners and edges of the cookie.
To add a decorative touch, while the frosting is still wet, sprinkle colored sprinkles or other edible decorations on top of the frosted cookies. The sprinkles will stick to the frosting if you press them lightly.
After decorating and icing the cookies, let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour, or until the frosting has stiffened.
Savor the Delight:
The frosted cookies can be served immediately or stored in an airtight container until you're ready to savor them.
Whether you're hosting a party or just want a sweet snack to go with your morning brew, these cookies are sure to please.
