4 1/2 C. FLOUR 
ROLL COOKIES OUT. CUT WITH COOKIE CUTTERS.  BAKE ABOUT10-12 MINS DEPENDING ON SIZE.

ROYAL ICING FOR DECORATING:

Ingredients


  • 1 pound confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoons meringue powder
  • Scant 1/2 cup water

Directions

  1. Beat ingredients in a mixer bowl on low speed until smooth, about 7 minutes. If icing is too thick, add more water; if too thin, beat 2 to 3 minutes more.
