Ingredients:
1 cup confectioners sugar
2 tsp. milk
2 tsp. light corn syrup
1/4 tsp. almond extract
Directions:
- Stir sugar and milk together until smooth.
- Beat in almond extract and light corn syrup until smooth and glossy. (If too thick, add more syrup. See note below)
- Divide into separate bowls and add food colorings to each to desired intensity.
- Dip cookies or paint them with a new paintbrush.
- NOTE: This glaze is a little on the thick side and won't be perfectly smooth when you first apply it. It should settle into a smooth surface within half a minute. Glaze one cookie and set it aside for a minute. If the glaze has settled, it is the right consistency. Remember that it is easier to add more liquid than to stir in more sugar so start with a glaze that's thicker than you think it should be. Add more syrup little by little to adjust the consistency if necessary.
