1 c. sifted confectioners' sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla or other flavoring
1 1/2 tbsp. cream or 1 tbsp. water

Blend sugar, salt and flavoring (try lemon, almond or peppermint flavoring for variety). Add cream to make easy to spread. If desired, tint with a few drops of food coloring. Spread on cookies with spatula or pastry brush.
