I am new to this site and I have a couple of questions? Please bear wtih me. 1) What is powdered icing sugar for the Royal Icing recipe? is it confectioners sugar?
2) How do I keep from get my sugar cookies harder quicker (no, this is not a personal problem) Ha-Ha. No seriously, i am pondering the idea of making cookies to put in a friend's store and i just want to get some suggestions, helpful hints, and/or ideas from the PROS. Thanx in advance becky215

The recipe I use for royal icing uses confectioners sugar.About the cookies not sure.I mostly do cakes.Haven't done much with cookies.Need to give it a try.

Let me welcome you to CakeCentral We're glad to have you here ... powder sugar and confectioner's sugar is the same thing... I'm not sure on the cookies and them getting too hard part .. I'll let the cookie maker pros answer that one
