How to make

STEP 1

Combine 1 cup butter, sugar and egg in bowl. Beat at medium speed, until creamy. Add orange juice and 1 tablespoon vanilla. Continue beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Add flour, baking powder and cinnamon; beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed.
STEP 2

Divide dough into thirds. Shape each third into a ball; flatten slightly. Wrap each in plastic food wrap; flatten to 1/2 inch. Refrigerate 2-3 hours or until firm.
STEP 3

Heat oven to 400°F.
STEP 4

Roll out dough on lightly floured surface, one-third at a time (keeping remaining dough refrigerated), to 1/8 to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with 2-inch cookie cutters. Place 1 inch apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 6-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool completely.
STEP 5

Combine powdered sugar, water, 1 tablespoon butter, corn syrup and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla in bowl; mix until powdered sugar is moistened. Beat at medium speed until smooth, adding additional water if necessary, to reach desired glazing consistency. Tint with food color, if desired.
STEP 6

Glaze cooled cookies. Add decorator candies, if desired. Let stand 6 hours or overnight until glaze is hardened.
