Royal Icing is made up of egg whites, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. Whip them up all together and you have this amazing sugar coating that will transform your cookies.

Royal Icing Recipe:

Ingredients:
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon juice
3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

In your mixer's bowl beat 2 large egg whites, 1 tsp of lemon juice and 1 tsp of vanilla extract until it's combined. Now add 3 cups of sifted powdered sugar on low speed until it's combined and smooth.
If you want to "flood" your cookies, this means outlining your cookie at the edge with a thin line of icing and then filling it in so it looks clean, the consistency that you're looking for is a very fluid one. Make sure the ribbon of icing that falls back into the bowl remains on the surface for a few seconds. If you want thicker icing for gingerbread houses or gingerbread men, add in some more powdered sugar.
You can color your icing by adding a few drops of favorite food color. Make sure to use this right away or store it in an air-tight container because leaving it exposed to air will make it hard.

Thank You J&G Family!
