Royal Icing to Decorate Cookies or Gingerbread Houses |
 |
Get into the the festive spirit by doing a little holiday baking and decorating. There is nothing that seems more appropriate than gingerbread houses and cookies at this time of year. Royal icing is a stiff icing used primarily for decorating gingerbread houses and cookies. This thick textured icing can also be used for flooding and detailing beautiful cookies.

Instructions:
Mix meringue powder, cream of tartar and warm water until dissolved.
Beat with electric mixer until foamy.
Add icing sugar.
Beat at medium speed for five minutes, then add glucose or corn syrup.
Beat another 3 minutes, put in an air-tight container.
Just add a little water to thin the icing down.
Once cookies have cooled - you are ready to decorate Gingerbread Men, Gingerbread Houses, or Christmas cookies.
