Instructions

1. 1 Scald milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to bubble, about 3 minutes. Cool to lukewarm.

3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven, until no imprint remains when touched lightly, about 10 to 12 minutes. Brush hot cookies with icing and transfer immediately to wire racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container with a piece of apple or orange for 2 to 3 days to soften and develop flavor.
4. 4 To make the icing: Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
