Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 c. powdered sugar
2 tbsp. meringue powder
¼ c. warm water (plus more for thinning to flood consistency)
½ tsp. clear vanilla or almond extract
Directions:
Directions:
1) In the bowl of an electric mixer combine powdered sugar and meringue powder.

2) Add the water and extract slowly. Beat at medium-high speed until stiff peaks form (about 5-7 minutes).


Notes:
- This makes a very stiff icing that will harden as it dries.

- You will use this to outline your cookies (with a squeeze bottle or piping bag). Using the same batch of icing, add drops of water to thin the icing to flood consistency and fill in your cookie.

- I always make WAY too much royal icing so this is the solution for me. If you need a large batch I would suggest bumping the powdered sugar up to 4 cups, the meringue powder to 3 Tablespoons, and the water to just under 1/2 cup. Flavor to your taste.
