Antonia74 - I noticed your cookies in your photos and the icing just looks sooooo perfect. I am wondering if you would be willing to share the recipe you use? I have trouble with icing cookies and getting them to look nice and smooth. Thanks a lot!

Here is the link for the icing. I just used it on my cookies and it's REALLY good!

Antonia74 has written a fabulous article telling exactly how she does her cookies - you can find it on the front page under New Articles, titled "How To Bake and Decorate Cookies".

I've used her technique and have had great success in getting my icing smooth on my cookies.

hth!

Thanks so much guys!! You pointed me in the exact right direction, as always!
