The fast set-up time mentioned by other reviewers suited my need to get some cookies ready to mail in a hurry on a rainy day. However, it set up so fast that it was hard to get sprinkles to stick, even doing one at a time! I think next time I may try adding another tablespoon of milk. This is good tasting icing, and would be ideal, as is, to use as a cookie filling. It was enough for 2 dozen medium cookies. If it was a little thinner, it might be enough to cover quite a few more.

Perfect! Used cream instead of milk and added just a tiny splash more. Used a silicon spatula to combine till smooth then loaded into decorating bag and piped onto cookies. Worked out great and tasted good too. Used semi-sweet mini-chips since it's what I had. Will absolutely use again to pipe onto cookies, brownies, and other desserts. Seems like it's a bit thick to use as a dipping icing though but could probably just add more milk to thin it out.

This icing is super easy to make plus I always have these ingredients on hand. It's sweet and delicious. It's perfect for cookies. I iced Mrs Sigg's Peanut Butter Cookies (AR recipe) with it and sprinkled chopped peanuts on top. It hardens quickly with a nice glossy look.

Perfect sugar cookie icing. The consistency was just right and the flavor was really good. I'm not sure why other reviewers had trouble with it setting up too quickly. I was able to ice 2 dozen sugar cookies without a problem. I even made it with baking cocoa instead of real chocolate and was very pleased!

I tried to use this for my cake. Spreading it was easy because I did it immediately (and the cake was still a little warm) but we did not like the taste or texture. I got hard.

This simple and tasty icing is excellent for cookies. It did set up quickly so I just added a bit of milk as I went along.

I used this for a chocolate bundt cake. It came out great for me the first time, I tried it.

Tastes good, but unfortunately too difficult to work with. Sets up way too quickly.

i didn't feel like going to the store for icing one night and had all the ingredients for this one so i gave it a try! turned out great, and although like the others said it dries kinda fast but still was great for my cake.
