Direction (For Glaze):-

• Step#1- To the confectioners' sugar add about a 1/4 cup of the lemon juice and stir to create a smooth glaze.
• Step#2- Adjust with more lemon juice or a little water. It should be thick and not too runny.
• Step#3- Take each cookie and dip the top into the glaze. Shake off the excess and place it on a cookie rack to dry.

  (the sprinkles should be added before drying otherwise they won’t stick).
