Recipe
- 1 batch Grain-Free Cut-Out Sugar Cookies, cut into desired shapes, baked and cooled
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- About 2 ½ Tablespoons milk (pipeable consistency for intricate snowflakes, and a more spreadable/pourable consistency for flooding shapes)
- Orange sprinkles for snowman noses
- Nonpareils sprinkles or mini colored candies for snowman buttons
- Melted chocolate for snowman hats
- Coarse sugar (optional) to make snowflakes sparkle
Instructions
- Make icing by whisking powdered sugar and milk together. Check for consistency and add a little more liquid at a time until desired consistency is reached. Or you can use your favorite royal icing recipe.
- Pipe/spread icing to decorate cookies. While icing is wet, add sprinkles or coarse sugar to stick to icing.
- Let cookies sit until icing has set, about 12-24 hours.
- Enjoy with a warm cup of chai, apple cider, or eggnog or milk!
