GoodShoog™ Cooked Frosting for Sugar Cookies

GoodShoog™ Cooked Frosting for Sugar Cookies

Makes enough for about 24 cookies

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Good Shoog
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
  • Optional: food coloring

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the Good Shoog, milk, flour, and salt until completely smooth.
  2. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture becomes thick and pudding-like, about 4–6 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly against the surface and allow it to cool completely to room temperature.
  4. Beat the softened butter with an electric mixer for 2–3 minutes, until light and creamy.
  5. Add the cooled cooked mixture one spoonful at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. Add the vanilla and optional almond extract. Beat another 2–3 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
  7. Add food coloring if desired.
  8. Frost completely cooled sugar cookies. Allow the frosting to sit at room temperature so the surface can develop a soft set.

Tip: For a thicker, bakery-style frosting, refrigerate it for about 15–20 minutes before frosting the cookies.
