Welcome to my Kitchen!

As often as possible you will find new recipes, that I have found on the internet, from others and some that are family favorites. Most are easy and use common ingredients found in most kitchens. Not all pictures are taken by me, but I do add my own pictures as soon as I can after I have made the recipe and remember to take the picture. Pull up a chair, help yourself to some coffee and make yourself at home. Please leave a comment, I appreciate feedback. Thank you.

Cookie icing

 Icing ~ with Corn Syrup

NO meringue powder! NO egg whites! This recipe is a perfect ratio of corn syrup to confectioner's sugar that works beautifully like Royal Icing without being so hard that it cracks when you bite into it. You can stack your cookies without ruining the decorations at all!



Calories: 42

Ingredients

  • 2 cups confectioner’s sugar
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 4 teaspoons corn syrup light
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or extract of your choice.

Instructions

  • With an electric mixer, beat all ingredients together until it is smooth and creamy. No lumps!

    Add a few more drops of milk for a thinner consistency if desired.

 EXTRA TIP:

WANT A GLAZE?  Add more milk to thin this icing to become a semi-transparent glaze.


YIELDS:  This recipe yields about ¾ cup of frosting, which is enough to frost about 26-30 cookies or little pastries that average 2½ -3 inches in size.


EXTRACT:  Choose any extract you want instead of vanilla.
