Instructions

  1. Combine powdered sugar, 2 Tablespoons of milk, corn syrup, and vanilla extract in a medium-sized bowl and stir until combined. If the frosting is too thick, add more milk, about a teaspoon at a time, until the frosting is thick but pipeable. If you accidentally add too much milk, add powdered sugar until desired texture is reached.
  2. Divide into small bowls and add food coloring (if desired).
  3. Transfer frosting to a piping bag with a piping tip.
  4. Pipe frosting on cookies and decorate with sprinkles/candies, if desired.
  5. Allow frosting to harden before serving, stacking, or storing (will most likely take several hours depending on your climate).
