Royal icing is a decorative hard white icing made with egg whites, powdered sugar, and some flavoring and coloring used to decorate cookies.

Steps to make Cookies with royal icing:
- Whisk egg whites and icing sugar together
- For flooding: When pulling a tooth pick through icing the dent should disappear in 4 counts (whisk until it only disappears after 4 counts)
- Colour half the icing for flooding with gel colouring (you can make as many colours as you like). Keep leftover icing in airtight container or ziplock bag in fridge for decorating.
- NB always keep icing closed with damped clothes when you're not using it. Never let it dry out**
- Place icing in piping bag with small round nozzle. There are 2 main flooding methods I use.
- Flooding method 1 (I used this one for these cookies): Pipe icing on cookie and with skewer or toothpick drag icing in circular motion to the edges https://youtu.be/CyFBQ3ylnhM

- Let flooding dry overnight
- For fine decorating: When pulling a tooth pick through icing the dent should disappear in 9 counts (whisk until it only disappears after 9 counts)

- Play around with dots, stripes and letters.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar on medium-high. This royal icing dries nice and firm, so you can easily stock the cookies, wrap them, whatever your preference and transport them. I use my whisk attachment on my mixer.
