After decorating 300 cookies for the KidZNotes gala, I don't think I'll ever forget what the perfect flood icing looks like. We also learned why you should sift the powdered sugar if you don't plan to mix it for 10 minutes. I tried a corn syrup recipe for the icing (against Betsy's advice) and won't do that again. There were visible lumps in the icing. The finished cookies looked pretty cute and even cuter when we tied the bags with musical note ribbon.
