• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 egg
• 1 cup white chocolate chips, melted and cooled
• 3 1/2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• white edible glitter (optional) or decorator sugar (optional)

1. Mix sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, egg and melted chips in a large bowl with a spoon till creamy. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours until chilled.
2. Heat oven to 375u0b0F For each cookie, divide 1 round teaspoons of dough in half. Roll each half into a 5" rope, tapering the ends. Twist the ropes together. Place 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
3. To hang icicles, poke a hole in the top of each cookie with a toothpick. Bake 5-7 minutes or until set and very light brown. Cool 2 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to a wire rack. Cool completely.
4. Brush with White Glaze (mix all glaze ingredients until smooth or of desired brushing consistency. Add more milk, a few drops at a time if necessary) and sprinkle with glitter or sugar. Thread string through the hole in each cookie to hang if desired.
