What is Icing?

Icing is a mixture of sugar, water, and sometimes food coloring that's used to top cookies. It's like the icing on the cake... or cookie.

			
				# Mix 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons water, and a pinch of magic
				# Add a dash of color if you're feeling fancy
				# Stir until smooth, then frost those cookies!
