Cream Cheese Cookie Glaze
Ingredients: Makes icing for 2 dozen cookies
2 ounces cream cheese (softened)
2 tablespoons corn syrup
2 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. almond extract

1/4 cup milk
Cream the cheese, corn syrup, and vanilla together until smooth.
Slowly add sugar and milk alternating until you achieve an "Elmer's glue" consistency. You may need more or less milk depending on desired consistency. If glaze becomes too runny, add more powdered sugar.
