1. In a large bowl mix together confectioner's sugar and meringue powder.
2. Add in water and mix with hand mixer or stand mixer with whisk attachment. Check your consistency by lifting whisk (or with a spoon) and drizzle frosting down and the frosting should smooth out within 15-20 seconds. Flood consistency is when it icing self-levels. If frosting is too thick then add in more water. If frosting is too runny then add in more confectioner's sugar.
3. If coloring icing then use gel food colors.
4. Pipe or spread on to cookies. *If layering colors or designs, after 15-30 minutes icing will have formed a crust. Royal icing will completely set in 2-4 hours.

Use cookie cutters, fondant cutters or hand cut out your cookie shapes from dough mixture.
Place cookie cutouts onto parchment lined baking sheet.

Spinach balls are a favorite in my house for both Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. My teenagers love them and have ever since they were young kids. They are the one thing they request every year, so I must make them. My son isn’t big on his vegetables but he loves these. I serve them with balsamic vinegar, but feel free to serve them with your favorite dressing or nothing at all.
Below you can find the recipe and I put together a video as well. Funny story, I made this video last year when I made them for Thanksgiving dinner and I never got to post it until this year. When I posted it both my son and daughter came to me and asked where they were and they wanted some. I said I didn’t have any and they said “but the video”. I disappointed them when I let them know that was last Thanksgiving. They don’t have that much longer to wait.

Combine all ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix well. Chill for 1/2 hour. Form into balls. (Size larger balls for a side dish and smaller for an appetizer.) Place balls onto a greased baking sheet and bake at 350° for 10-20 minutes or until slightly brown.
