1. Prepare cookie mix as directed on package. Roll out dough on floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into round shapes with 2-inch cookie cutter. Bake and cool cookies as directed on package.

2. Mix sugar and milk in small bowl until smooth. Stir in corn syrup until icing is smooth and glossy. If icing is too thick, stir in a small additional amount of corn syrup. Divide mixture in half. Leave one half white for the background of the soccer balls. Stir black food color into the remaining icing until well blended.

Let cookies stand until icing is set.Test Kitchen Tip: For larger cookies, use 4-inch cookie cutter. Increase bake time to 12 to 14 minutes. Makes 18 (1 cookie) servings.
