    This icing is a lot like 7-minute frosting, except easier to make, and it brings the "sweetness" level of the finished cookie up to PERFECT. We spooned some into small bowls, and added coloring into each one. Spreading with spoons is easy, so is piping with a baggie. The finished taste is the best I've ever made!

    I would definitely suggest using the paste or powder coloring. I looked around and found that it was cheaper and you have to use less! The colors are perfect too! Thanks for the recipe Alton!

    This was a wonderfully easy, delicious recipe = I only had three cups of powdered sugar handy in the pantry, so I only used two egg whites (but doubled the vanilla. This icing held up perfectly under stacks of gingerbread men and tasted great as well! Will definitely make again! Thanks Alton.

    First of all I love love love the show. Everything is awesome and tastes great. Last year I wanted to make Christmas Cookies for Christmas. The Cookie was a failure, UNTIL I realized that you needed BOTH the cookie and icing for it to be awesome. Which is amazing because then the complete cookie isn't overly sugary like you get at the stores. Everyone ate millions of cookies. For days my kitchen was a powdery sugar mess because I had to keep up with all my family and friends requests. I had a friend come over and we iced them all together using sandwich baggies. The Icing was so amazing because it settled and looked so smooth and professional. Not to mention that they lasted forever. I kept them in a container covered as tightly as I could in foil. I was amazed. AMAZED I tell you!

    I needed an easy royal icing recipe for some decorations that I was making for some cupcakes for a Baby shower.

    This recipe was super easy, and it didn't take 5-7 minutes of beating for me. Mine only took 3 minutes or so.

    I loosened it up with water a 1/2 tsp at a time to get it to a flowable consistancy for filling in after I did my outlines on wax paper.

    Perfect recipe! I used 3 servings of meringue powder instead of the egg whites. I didn't have to beat it for very long, just a minute or two. The other key is to use freezer bags instead of sandwich bags, they hold up much better.

    This recipe is awesome! Easy to make and easy to use! My kids are 9, 7 & 3 and they had no problems at all. Thank you AB!
