Do not overmix You can either: roll your dough into a log & roll in sanding sugar or sprinkles, chill for 20 minutes then slice OR roll dough out on a lightly floured work surface and use any size cutter to cut your dough.  Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes until pale but golden.  Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before placing on a wire rack to cool completely.  Glaze When your cookies are cool, prepare your simple glaze by mixing all ingredients together until combined. If your glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar. If your glaze is too thick, add more milk a little bit at a time until desired consistency is reached.
