Vanilla Glaze for Sugar Cookie Cutouts

Here is the glaze, or cookie icing, to decorate the Sugar Cookie Cutouts.  Use it as an icing or drizzle over cookie and bars.  You can see the bowls of icing right by Levi.  He had the best time and decorated so many cookies!

For multiple colors, divide the glaze into small bowls and add different colors to each bowl.  Give everyone a small basting brush or spoon for decorating.  Be sure to have crystals, sprinkles and any other cookie decorating items you can buy at the grocery store.  Because this can get messy, use paper plates to decorate your cookie and if plate gets messy with the icing, use a new one!  Makes it so much fun.

1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Food coloring

Place the powdered sugar in a bowl.  Add the cream and vanilla and stir for about 1 minute.  Divide the glaze into smaller bowls, add 1-2 drops of food coloring and stir until uniform in color. 

You will need to make multiple bowls for additional colors.
