Make an easy icing for sugar cookies using powdered sugar, powdered egg whites and your choice of gel food colors. Ingredients:
1 (1-pound) box (3 1/4 cups) powdered sugar |
1/4 cup just whites (powdered egg whites) |
1/3 cup water |
gel food colors |
decorating sugar, edible glitter (optional) |
Directions:
1. Beat powdered sugar and Just Whites in a large bowl with mixer on low speed until combined. Add 1/3 cup water; beat until blended. Increase speed to high; continue to beat 8 minutes or until icing is very thick. Icing can be tinted with paste or gel food colors, as desired. Pipe onto cookies, or thin with a bit more water for spreading.
2. To pipe icing: Use a pastry bag fitted with a plain tip, or fill a zip-top plastic bag with icing and snip off 1 of the corners. Pipe icing along the edges of the cookies or in a pattern you like. Immediately sprinkle with decorating sugar or edible glitter, if desired.
