Easy Cooking Decorating Ideas

Snowy Sugar Glaze
Use snowy sugar glaze to cover the cookies first, then use colored glaze to decorate in straight lines, drizzles, squiggly lines or dots. Let the glaze dry and harden to create a perfect work surface. Do not use egg yolk on cookies after they have been baked.

2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons skim milk
*Few drops green food color

1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Make sure cookies are completely cool then coat each cookie with the white glaze.
2. To make colors, remove one of tablespoon glaze to several custard cups. Add 1 or 2 drops of food coloring to each. Make some tints and some darker colors for creative decorating. Use a small brush or toothpick to swirl colors into desired patterns on cookies.
3. To use the same recipe as frosting, simply add a little more powdered sugar to thicken.

*Food Coloring comes in two forms, paste or liquid. The paste makes the most vivid and varied colors, but liquid can also work well. Start with a tiny amount of food coloring and add more until desired color is reached.

Milk Paint
Sweetened condensed milk
Assorted food colors
Empty Styrofoam egg carton

1. Place 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk in each compartment or container.
2. Add a few drops of different color to each. Paint on cooled, glazed cookies.
3. Allow to completely dry before storing.

Tinted Coconut
Place one can flaked or shredded coconut in a zip closure bag or jar with lid. Make sure you leave 3 inches of space in the top of the container for shaking. Add a 2 to 3 drops food color. Zip the bag or seal the jar and shake the container. Add more food color for darker colors.

Colored Sugar
Measure 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Place sugar in a jar with tight fitting lid. Add a few drops liquid food coloring and shake jar. Add more food coloring to get desired color for sugar. Sprinkle sugar on warm cookies or glaze, then sprinkle with colored sugar.

Decorating Tip—Use a muffin tin to assemble all the decorations tinted coconut colored sugar, sprinkles, and candy balls.

Greetings!

Actually it is quite easy. All you need is confectionery (powdered sugar) sugar, a little mild and some flavoring mostly vanilla, orange etc.
I like after frosting mine to put the tray into the fridge for a few minutes to give the glaze time to harden.
You can also use food coloring if you want a specific color

Good Luck
