milk, adding milk 1 Tbs. at a time. Icing should be somewhat thick
but able to flow to be dribbled onto cookies.
Adjust as necessary with more milk if too thick or more powdered
sugar if too thin.
Dribble icing over cooled cookies and immediately sprinkle with
colored sprinkles of your choice.
Alternately, dip cookies into bowl of icing and then add sprinkles.
