Sugar cookie icing is the same as royal icing and can be used as decorative icing for sugar cookies in a variety of interesting ways.

Cookie Swap is one of the best and has so many ideas on how to use your frosting on cookies.

This recipe makes 3 1/2 cups

  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 pound confectioner's sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • A squeeze of lemon juice

Combine all ingredients, beat at high speed for 5-10 minutes, depending on your mixer. Keep covered with a damp cloth, the icing dries very quickly.

Ways to use your icing for sugar cookies: You will need to experiment with how much liquid to add-here are some outlines to help.

    • Use as is for "glue" for gingerbread construction or thicken it with additional powdered sugar.

    • For outlines - By adding a few drops of water to thin the icing slightly for crisp outlines

    • For top coating - By gradually adding water a tablespoon at a time to thin the icing to spreading consistency.

    • For stenciling - Adding 2- 4 tablespoons of water until the icing spreads without leaving any track marks or peaks.

    • For beadwork - Add 2 tablespoons water or more. At the the correct consistency the frosting will form a well rounded dot when piped.
