STEP 4
Roll out dough on lightly floured surface, one-half at a time (keeping remaining dough refrigerated), to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with 2 1/2- to 3-inch cookie cutters. Place, 1 inch apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake 6-8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheets; remove to cooling rack. Cool completely.

Combine all icing ingredients in bowl. Beat at low speed until moistened. Beat at medium speed 2-4 minutes or until thickened and glossy. (If too thick, add additional tablespoon hot water.) Cover bowl with damp paper towel or plastic food wrap until ready to use.
