FROSTING
2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar (the sugar must be sifted)
2 tablespoons soy milk (adding in more if needed for proper spreading consistency)
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
food
coloring (use your choice of colors)
FROSTING directions:
1. For the frosting; in a small bowl mix the confectioners sugar with milk (start with 1-2 tablespoons, you will likely need more milk for the perfect spreading consistency).
2. Beat in corn syrup and almond extract until the icing is smooth and glossy (if the icing is too thick add in a small amount more of corn syrup).
3. Divide into as many separate bowls as you wish for different colors.
4. Add in food coloring until desired intensity is achieved.
5. Paint the icing over the cookies using a brush, or dip edges of cookies into icing.
