ROYAL ICING FOR SUGAR COOKIES
If you're decorating cookies using our royal icing for sugar cookies and have a compromised immune system, we recommend instead using meringue powder, found in the baking aisle of most markets, instead of raw egg whites.

Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine sugar and meringue powder. Mixing on low speed, add a scant 1/2 cup water. For a thinner consistency, usually used for flooding, add more water. A thicker consistency is generally used for outlining and adding details. Mix until icing holds a ribbonlike trail on the surface of the mixture for 5 seconds when you raise the paddle.

Steps:
- Beat the whites until stiff but not dry. Add sugar, lemon juice and glycerin (if using); beat for 1 minute more. If icing is too thick, add more egg whites; if it is too thin, add more sugar. The icing may be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
MARTHA'S FAVORITE ROYAL ICING
Royal icing is best for decorating cookies, since it dries to a plaster-hard finish. This recipe yields enough to cover about 100 three- to four-inch cookies. To ice all those in this story, you will need to make two batches of icing; increasing the recipe by half won't work well.

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and beat with a mixer on low speed until smooth and opaque white, about 7 minutes. If icing is too thick, add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until icing has the consistency of glue; if too thin, beat icing 2 to 3 minutes more, or add more sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Steps:
- Mix sugar, water, and meringue powder with a mixer on low speed until smooth, about 7 minutes. Icing should be the consistency of glue. (If icing is too thick, mix in a little more water. If icing is too thin, add more confectioners' sugar.) Add food coloring, 1 drop at a time, until desired color is achieved; if making more than 1 color, divide icing and work in batches. Use immediately, or refrigerate for up to 1 week. Stir before using.

ROYAL ICING FOR MARSHMALLOW TREATS
Use this recipe to decorate our Sugar-Coated Marshmallow Bunnies and Chicks, Chocolate-Coated Marshmallow Chicks, and Flat Marshmallow Shapes. While not in use, the tip of the icing bag should be wrapped in a damp paper towel -- icing hardens quickly when exposed to air.

Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine confectioners' sugar and meringue powder with scant 1/4 cup water on low speed. Mix until fluffy yet dense, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Color the icing as needed starting with a small amount of gel food coloring.Transfer to a small pastry bag fitted with a 1/32-inch pastry tip (#1 Ateco).
- If making marshmallow treats, pipe faces as desired, or pipe eyes on both sides of coated chicks and two eyes and a nose on bunnies. Pipe one eye on flat bunnies and chicks. Store the royal icing in an airtight container up to a week, and stir before using.
ROYAL ICING WITH MERINGUE POWDER
Meringue powder is an icing mix available in cake-decorating supply stores. This recipe is a good choice if you're concerned about consuming raw eggs.

Steps:
- Place meringue powder and 3/4 cup water in the bowl of an electric mixer and use the whisk attachment to combine. Add 1/4 cup of the sugar; mix well on low speed. Gradually add remaining 3 3/4 cups sugar, mixing constantly and scraping down the sides.
- Increase the speed to high and continue to beat until soft peaks form, about 5 minutes. Gradually add more water as necessary to thin to the consistency appropriate for the decorating you are doing. As a rule, the icing should be stiffer for lettering, more malleable for making petals -- but you will need to experiment to find the best consistency. Store at room temperature in an airtight metal or glass container for up to 2 weeks.
ROYAL ICING
The consistency may be thinned by adding a little water if necessary. Thicker icing may be used to outline cookies, and thinner icing may be used to "flood" or fill inside the outline. For the Christmas Tree Sugar Cookies, two to three drops of gel food coloring can be added after the mixture is smooth.
