Royal icing is very versatile. Use to ice cookies or decorate cakes. Or use to decorate or glue together gingerbread houses.

Provided by McCormick

Prep Time 15 minutes

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 box (16 oz) confectioners' sugar sifted
6 tbsps warm water
3 tbsps powdered egg whites
1 tsp McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract

Steps:

  • Place confectioners' sugar, water, powdered egg whites and vanilla in large bowl. Beat with electric mixer on high speed 5 to 7 minutes until stiff peaks form and icing is fluffy and glossy.
  • For each color of icing, place 1/2 cup icing in bowl. Stir in 3 to 4 drops food color until evenly distributed and icing is smooth. Add additional drops food color until icing is of desired color. (Keep remaining icing covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying.)
  • To ice cookies, place cooling rack on foil-lined baking sheet. Spoon icing onto cookies using a teaspoon. Cookies can also be iced using a new small paintbrush. Place iced cookies on cooling rack to dry.
  • Use contrasting icing colors to decorate iced cookies, if desired. Place small amount of contrasting icing in small resealable plastic bag. Snip off tiny piece of the corner of the plastic bag. Create design by squeezing contrasting icing onto cookies. Allow iced cookies to dry thoroughly before stacking.

Total Time 10 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 0S

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/4 c.

meringue powder 

5 tbsp.

water

4 c.

powdered sugar

Food coloring

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, using a hand mixer (or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), beat meringue powder and water until frothy and starting to stiffen. Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth and thick. Add more water 1 tablespoon at a time, as needed. Icing should hold its shape without being too stiff to work with. Add desired food coloring and beat until well incorporated. To thin icing for flooding, add water 1 teaspoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. It should hold its shape for a couple of seconds when drizzled on top of the icing and then start to slowly melt into itself.
