- Some of the cookie mixes (i.e. Krusteaz) come with a glaze packet. If yours comes with one, omit glaze ingredients and make glaze as directed on box.
- Other mixes (i.e. Betty Crocker) do not come with glaze. Use the ingredients and directions to make glaze, if desired.
- For the glaze, the fat content of the milk affects how much you use. Nonfat milk will need less, heavy cream will need more, etc.
