Cookies & Royal Icing
3 options for participation!
1.JUST WATCH!
2.DRAW along with me! Colored pencils would be great!
3.DECORATE with me! 10-12 large round sugar cookies. I will be using royal icing in piping bags in the following colors: white, black, pink, teal, red, yellow, green.
Recipe for Royal Icing: 1/3 cup meringue powder & 2/3 cup warm water. Mix on high for 3 minutes. Slowly add 2 pounds of powdered sugar. Mix on high for 2 minutes. Add 2-3 teaspoons of vanilla or your favorite flavor. Add 1/3- 1/2 cup of water to thin the icing. Mix well. Keep icing covered when you are not using it, as it will harden.
*Feel free to substitute sugar cookies and royal icing for graham crackers and buttercream or icing in a can.
