If you’re like me, something about holiday baking makes everything feel extra cozy and magical. Whether it’s the warm spices of pumpkin or the rich decadence of chocolate, adding a little something special can turn your treats into a show-stopper. That’s why I’m thrilled to introduce my Coffee-Flavored Royal Icing! This isn’t just any royal icing—it’s the perfect touch to take your holiday cookies from delicious to absolutely irresistible!
Imagine the deep, aromatic notes of coffee swirled into a velvety icing that perfectly complements your Pumpkin Spice Roll-Out Cookies and brings out the intense cocoa flavor in your Dark Chocolate Roll-Out Cookies. It’s a match made in cookie heaven! And if you really want to add some wow factor, stir in a tablespoon of vanilla bean paste. It adds gorgeous specks of vanilla throughout the icing and deepens the flavor, giving it that extra touch of elegance and taste. Combining coffee and vanilla creates a rich and smooth flavor profile, making every bite look as good as it tastes! 😍
This icing is for all my fellow coffee lovers out there—because who doesn’t want to double up on their love for coffee, right? The subtle coffee flavor adds just the right amount of sophistication to your decorated cookies, making every bite feel like a warm hug on a crisp fall day.
Before jumping into the recipe, some words will make your Royal Icing journey a little easier, and if I’m being honest, I would have loved to know before making my first batch of Royal Icing.
This Coffee Royal Icing recipe is the perfect blend of smooth sweetness with a kick of espresso flavor! It’s ideal for pairing with fall-inspired cookies like my Pumpkin Spice Latte Roll-Out and Dark Chocolate Roll-Out recipes. Just a hint of coffee transforms it into a must-try for all coffee and cookie lovers. Enjoy decorating!
This recipe can be used with my Pumpkin Spice Latte Roll-Out Sugar Cookie or Dark Chocolate Sugar Cookie.
