Here is the icing recipe everyone asked about on the scooby doo and spongebob cookies. Toba Garrett's Glacé Icing Recipe: I let it harden over night and then you can stack them but it won't break a tooth.

1 pound (454 g) powdered sugar
3/8 cup (90 ml) whole milk
3/8 cup (4.5 oz or 126 g) light corn syrup

Flavor Options: 1 tsp concentrated extract, I Tbsp alcohol or liqueur, or 2 to 3 drops concentrated candy oil

In a mixing bowl, thoroughly mix the sugar and the milk first. The icing should be very soft and have a heavy-cream texture before you add the corn syrup. Add the corn syrup and mix just until combined.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap to prevent drying until you're ready to use it. (color as needed)

Too outline- add 6 tbs powder sugar to 1/2 cup of the icing above. I have made chocolate by adding a little cocoa and a little chocolate and then black color.

Yeah! I saw your cookies the other day, and thought they were great. I just now found the recipe. I am making cookies for my pastor's birthday tomorrow, and think I will use this. Thank you!

Great scooby cookies! My hands are too shaky for that much detail.

I used Toba's recipe a couple of weeks ago and was quite pleased with the result. Question: do you use a pastry bag or squeeze bottles? I found the icing sooo very messy! I think the squeeze bottles would work well, but seems like getting them clean would be a major challenge. TIA

I used a bag as I didn't want to clean out the bottles, LOL. Then I used a little brush to fill in the tiny places.
