Royal Icing

15 minutes

Equipment

  • Stand Mixer

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp dried egg whites
  • 1 lb powdered sugar about 4 cups
  • 1/2 cup water, less 1 tbsp

Instructions

  • Combine ingredients, mixing slowly, then beat at medium speed for 5-10 minutes until icing has "soft serve curl" when holding up spoon or spatula. Icing will have the consistency of sour cream, ideal for spreading on cookies.
  • Be sure all utensils are grease free or icing will not come together. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of icing if not using immediately, it dries out quickly.
