Homemade Sprinkles
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- food coloring
- icing, bag
- baking sheet
- parchment paper
- ADDITIONAL MATERIALS: #2 pastry tip, small bottles (about 50mL).
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg white and water until frothy with an electric mixer, about 20 seconds. Then slowly beat in the powdered sugar until smooth.
- Stir in the almond extract and a few drops of desired food coloring.
- Line 3 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a small pastry tip, like #2. Pipe the batter out into lines to cover all three sheets. Do not let the lines touch one another. You can also do tiny dots.
- Let the sheets stand at room temperature, uncovered, until the lines are completely dry, about 12 hours.
- Once the lines have dried, use your fingers to break them up into short sprinkle-sized pieces.
- Fill small bottles with the sprinkles.
