Easy Gingerbread Man cookie glaze

  If you saw my favorite gingerbread man cookie post you will probably be wanting my easy gingerbread man cookie glaze. This is a very simple yet beautifully glossy glaze. I usually help my kids spoon it on and let them go crazy with sprinkles and decorations.  

Recipe: Easy gingerbread man cookie glaze

Recipe source: Emmy in her Element

 

Ingredients:

1 cup Powdered sugar

2 1/2- 2 3/4 teaspoons Milk

1/4-1/2 teaspoon lemon or orange extract (optional but delicious!)

 

Directions:

Add powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Slowly mix in milk and flavoring. I like to leave most of my frosting white but you can add coloring if desired. It will seem very thick at first but just keep mixing until you get a smooth glossy glaze!

Garnish with sprinkles, crushed candy canes, candy dots or simply add a few drops of food coloring to part of your glaze and color spots on cookies!
