Cant Get Antonias Icing To Thin...help Please!!!
Baking By TiffTurtle Updated 26 Oct 2006 , 10:55pm by antonia74
whats the deal? it usually happens with less than 3...and im at 5 and its still thick....is it a bad batch? should i start over? im getting really fustrated here.. help please.
seemed like the last time I made it--it took a LOT of water to thin. I'd say keep going. Maybe let it sit for a bit and then go back. If you think it too much, you can always add more sugar.
thanks..im up to 7 tbsp of water now...its crazy...would the fact that its cold here now be making a difference? last time i made it it was like 70 ..the past few days have been in the mid 50's
weather always affect baking!
That's exactly right. The humidity in the air, temperature and the altitude can have an effect on baking/drying time. As the weather changes where you live, you may find that the cookies dry crunchier and sometimes even faster. (This is happening to me very quickly as the cold weather sets in in Toronto and our radiators pump out the nasty dry heat!)
