Simplecookieglaze Recipes

Steps:

• Stir confectioners' sugar, corn syrup, and water together. Stir in food coloring if desired. This glaze must be stirred each time you use it. If it is not stirred before each use it will dry with a mottled look instead of a solid color.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, water and vanilla; stir until combined and smooth (mixture will be thick). Tint with food coloring if desired. With a butter knife or small metal spatula, lightly spread glaze on cooled cookies. Let dry for 1 hour.

Steps:

• Whisk sugar with orange zest and orange juice in a small bowl until smooth.

Steps:

• Cookie: Combine the flour, soda and salt and toss together. Set aside. Cream the butter on high until pale yellow, scraping down the bowl frequently. Add the sugar and turn to medium speed. Beat for 2 minutes, until soft and almost white. Add the eggs and vanilla, beat about 30 seconds. Add the flour mixture and mix on low about 30 seconds. Form 2 separate pieces and wrap in waxed paper. Freeze for 20 to 30 minutes. When you're ready to roll the dough, sprinkle surface lightly with flour and sprinkle top of dough lightly as well. Roll out, add flour if you need it to keep it from sticking. Cut out shapes, place on parchment paper on cookie sheets. Bake at 375°F for 8 to 10 minutes or until barely brown on edges. Cool on rack. Icing: Mix all ingredients together. Stir until smooth. Glaze should be thick but soft enough to set.

Steps:

• Combine water and sugar in a small saucepan with a whisk.
• Bring to a boil and boil until the sugar dissolves and the syrup turns clear.
• Make this glaze before you begin making cookies, and allow it to cool to slightly above room temperature while you make and bake your cookies. When the cookies and the syrup are cool, brush each cookie with a very thin coat of glaze and sprinkle on decorations or large-crystal sugar.
• Allow glaze to dry for at least an hour before stacking cookies. Thin glaze will dry faster than a thick coat of glaze.

Steps:

• Mix the confectioners sugar with 2 tablespoons of water until it forms a thin smooth glaze. Spoon the glaze onto each cookie then decorate with the sprinkles.

Steps:

• Combine sugar with water to achieve the desired consistency in a small bowl. Add vanilla extract or orange juice (or lemon or lime juice).
• To tint the glaze: Place small quantities in several small bowls. Add a little food coloring to each bowl and mix well. (Paste food colors give the most vivid results.) Allow glazed cookies to dry completely before packaging or storing.
