"This icing dries hard and shiny and the colors stay bright. Choose as many different food colorings as you desire."
Ingredients:
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons low-fat milk
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 dash assorted natural food coloring (optional)
Directions:
Combine white sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, simmering until dissolved and a sugar syrup is created, about 5 minutes.
Stir together confectioner's sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Beat in almond extract and 2 teaspoons of sugar syrup until icing is smooth and glossy. If icing is too thick, add more sugar syrup.
Optional: Divide icing into separate bowls and add food colorings to each to desired intensity. Dip cookies or paint them with a brush.
