HOW TO MAKE ROYAL ICING FOR COOKIES
This is my all time favorite royal icing recipe! This recipe uses 2 lbs of confectioners sugar but you mix in 1lb at a time. If you buy a 2lb bag just eyeball half the bag. This recipe also doubles quite nicely.

Steps:
- Use a stand mixer with the whisk attachment to start.
- Add to your mixing bowl: 1/3 cup Meringue Powder and 1/2 cup of warm water (start with a tiny bit more if you will not be adding the lemon juice from next step).
- Whisk until doubled in size, 1 - 2 minutes. Do not over mix.
- Add to your whisked mixture: all vanilla, and OPTIONAL 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice. This is optional, but the lemon really cuts the sweetness of the icing nicely.
- Mix until just incorporated.
- Mix in 1 full pound of confectioners sugar. Mix until just incorporated.
- Mix in light corn syrup. Mix until just incorporated.
- Mix in 1 full pound of confectioners sugar. Mix until just incorporated.
- Continue to mix for about 3 minutes on high - your icing will start to turn white and have a fluffy look. But do NOT overmix. Overmixing can cause the icing to collapse. This will yield a VERY stiff icing. If you feel it is too stiff even to start with, add small amounts of water.

Steps:
- To Color the Icing, if Desired: Divide icing among several small bowls, one for each color you'd like to prepare. Cover each with plastic wrap pressed directly against the surface. Working with one bowl at a time, stir in a few drops of gel paste. When your desired color has been achieved, immediately transfer to a disposable pastry bag fitted with a #3 pastry tip, or a parchment cone . (For ease of use, I like to stand the bag/cone upright in a small drinking glass.)
- To Glaze the Tops of Sugar Cookies: Leaving a 1/8- to 1/4-inch margin (or more, depending on size of cookies), outline baked and fully cooled rolled sugar cookie cutouts with royal icing, then roughly drizzle the interiors with more icing, using the piping tip to nudge it into an even layer. Work quickly if topping with sprinkles or a secondary icing color, as royal icing will form a crust within 90 seconds. If you'd like to read more on the basics of decorating, check out my royal icing tutorial for lots of photos, videos, and ideas. For cookies to keep around the house, allow royal icing to air-dry until firm, about 4 hours. For cookies to package and ship, allow royal icing to dry until hardened through and through, about 6 to 8 hours more.
- Cookies frosted with royal icing can be stored up to 1 week at room temperature; in a pinch, their shelf life can be extended to about 10 days with refrigeration. Unfortunately, cookies with royal icing should not be frozen, as the water in the royal icing will form ice crystals that will melt as liquid water when thawed, creating a blotchy appearance on the surface of the frosting.

Steps:
- Beat first three ingredients, then thin with a little water, if needed.
- Add almond, vanilla, and butter flavoring.
- Depending on how many colors you want, divide it between several bowls.
- To decorate on top of original layer of icing, thicken with powdered sugar until desired thickness.
- Decorating works best when used in the decorating bags with tips.
- Also, before spreading thin icing over cookies, try putting an outline of thick icing from a small decorating tip around the edge of the cookie.
- This way, the thin icing will not drip over the edge.

Turn speed up to high and beat until mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks. This should take approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Add food coloring, if desired. For immediate use, transfer icing to pastry bag or heavy duty storage bag and pipe as desired. If using storage bag, clip corner. Store in airtight container in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
ROYAL ICING
Royal icing is very versatile. It is pure white and dries very hard, so it is perfect for making flowers and bows and delicate piped work. It can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 weeks. You should stir the icing to restore its original consistency after storage, but do not rebeat. Royal icing does not work well in high humidity.

Steps:
- Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat slowly until they are all blended. Then beat at medium speed until the icing forms stiff peaks, about 5 minutes. Add more sugar if the icing is not stiff enough, or a few drops of water if it is too stiff. Use immediately or cover the bowl with a damp cloth to prevent drying when not in use. Allow at least 24 hours for royal icing decorations to dry, at room temperature.
