The basis you need about 12 prepared muffin here all колекция Cookies muffins - here , you can choose a recipe that you like. It is appropriate not too sweet, if the recipe used glaze - replace it with that here. To prepare glaze the butter should be soft - let it cut into pieces for at least 2 hours room temperature. Sift powdered sugar - you need about 2 cups sifted sugar (not 2 cups powdered sugar, to sift then). The soft butter is stirred with a mixer for 3-5 minutes until fluffy. The mixer is reduced to low and spoon by spoon and add 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar. When all the powdered sugar is absorbed by the butter, the mixer switches to medium speed and stir the mixture for a few minutes. Add vanilla and a pinch of salt 1 tbsp milk or cream and again stirred for a few minutes. Add remaining quantity of powdered sugar (again stirred at a low level) and stirred for a few minutes. If you want a hard glaze can put a little powdered sugar to soft - do not add all. Finally put green paint - if you use gel, needs little, if liquid paint - add a few drops until you get the desired color. With liquid paint may need to add a little powdered sugar.
