Directions

  1. Mix egg yolk and water. Divide into dishes for as many colors as you want to make. Add food coloring to get shade desired (e.g., 2 Red plus 2 Yellow for Orange, 3 Blue for Blue).

  2. Paint on unbaked cookies and bake as you normally would. Cookies will come out with a shiny color finish.

Recipe Yield

1 quarter cup

Recipe Note

This makes a shiny gloss finish on most any cookie. It works best on light-colored cookies, like sugar cookie cutouts. Depending on the color you are going for, you will probably need between 2 and 8 drops of food coloring.
