Betty's Tip: To give a special look to your cookies, marble frosting with Food Color Paint. Stir together small amounts of water and food color. Paint different colors on freshly frosted cookies, using a fine-tip brush, then swirl the colors with a clean brush or toothpick to create marbled designs. (Do not allow frosting to dry or harden before marbling or this technique won't work.) Dry completely before storing.
