Does anyone have a white cookie icing recipe? I'm going to build a gingerbread house... only different.

Gingerbread concentration camp?

Jeez... am I really that transparent?

Try this:

1/3 cup butter or margarine
4.5 cups sifted powered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1.5 teaspoons vanilla
Milk
Food colouring (optional)

In a mixing bowl, beat butter until fluffy. Gradually add 2 cups of the powdered sugar, beating well. Slowly beat in the 1/4 cup milk and vanilla.

Slowly beat in remaining powdered sugar. Beat in additional milk, if needed, to reach spreading consistency. If desired, tint with food colouring. This frosts the tops and sides of two 8 - or 9-inch layers.

For providing this recipe, I will of course require compensation: A photo or two of the finished product.

Hmmm, is the icing going to dry to a hard crust quickly? I'm going to need something like glue to hold the pieces together...

Yeah, we use it for Christmas cookies every year. Any part of it touching air hardens. It's thick, too. So it may work. If not, my apologies.

I'll give it a try. Thank you. :)

Gingerbread house after Giant-Sized Mnemora spunked all over and drowned it?

I would have to draw a picture of her in perspective to put behind it, and set up a little diorama...

I think you should build a quaint little windmill instead, with millstones slowly grinding.

Reminiscent of the slow grind of my existence!

Maybe something serial-killer-themed? I'm imagining a gingerbread house with a smiling gingerbread man out front, only you look closer and realize he's built his house out of other gingerbread men. Bonus points for shallow graves in the backyard and maybe an emaciated face peeking through a basement window...?

Gingerbread concentration camps are terribly overdone. Mind you the icing-as-spooge idea is pleasingly obvious-yet-original. Hyphens-are-my-master.
