  • 1/4 cup light butter
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tbsp water

  5. Shape into a disk, wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  7. Spray 2 large baking sheets with nonstick spray.
  8. Set a large rack over a sheet of wax paper.
  9. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
  10. Using a 2 1/2 inch leaf-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the cookies rerolling the scraps to make a total of 28 cookies.
  11. With a spatula, place the cookies 1/2 inch apart on the baking sheets.
  12. Bake until the cookies are lightly browned at the edges, 12-15 minutes.
  13. Transfer the cookies to the rack and cool completely.
  14. To make the frosting, combine all the ingredients except the colored sugar (if using) in a bowl.
  15. Use a spoon to drizzle the frosting over the cookies and sprinkle with colored sugar.
  16. Let stand until the frosting is set, about 20 minutes.
