Thank you.   The icing is simple--- 1TBLSP  of butter softened to 2 cups powdered sugar--touch of extract (your choice--usually vanilla) - 1 tsp. corn syrup---milk to make a slightly runny consistency.

That's the hard part--trying to get the right consistency.   Must be thick enough to dry yet liquidy to spread easily.   I clean up the edges while frosting with the spatula knife.   It's almost like color flow icinig.  I use a toothpick to feather the design while it is still wet.  Will be posting some Easter cookies done the same way.
