Healthier Sugar Cookie cing
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 teaspoons low-fat milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 dash assorted natural food coloring (optional)


  1. Combine white sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat, simmering until dissolved and a sugar syrup is created, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir together confectioner's sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Beat in almond extract and 2 teaspoons of sugar syrup until icing is smooth and glossy. If icing is too thick, add more sugar syrup.
