KITTENCAL'S BUTTERY CUT-OUT SUGAR COOKIES W/ ICING THAT HARDENS
You will not find a better sugar cookie anywhere you search, this will most likely be the only sugar cookie you will use, not only are these cookies buttery delicious, the dough is an absolute dream to work with, it rolls out easily and is easy to handle, also the cookies hold their shape when baked something many sugar cookies do not do --- make as many different colors as desired in separate bowls with the icing, the cookies must be completely cooled before icing --- plan ahead the dough must be chilled for at least 2 hours before rolling -- since these are topped with icing they are not a sweet cookie if you want a sweeter taste then increase the sugar amount

(I did 6 minutes) Remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely before icing.
- 3. ICING: In a small bowl mix the powdered sugar with milk (start with 1 or 2 tablespoons, you will likely need more milk for the perfect spreading consistency). Beat in corn syrup and a little vanilla until the icing is smooth and glossy (if the icing is too thick add in a small amount of more corn syrup). Divide into as many separate bowls as you wish to different colors. Add in food coloring until desired intensity is achieved. Pain the icing over the cookies using a brush,or dip edges of cookies into icing. Wash brush before changing colors. Allow to set on waxed paper. Decorate as you want.

Tips:
- Use cold butter. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the dough, resulting in a more tender cookie.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading and will make them easier to cut out.
- Use a sharp knife to cut out the cookies. This will help prevent the edges from becoming ragged.
- Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature. This will help prevent them from browning too quickly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before icing them. This will help prevent the icing from melting.
