About Sugar cookie with royal icing

Sugar cookies with royal icing are a classic treat originating from Western baking traditions, often associated with holidays and celebrations. These cookies are typically made with simple ingredients including flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and baking powder, providing a soft and tender base. Royal icing, made from egg whites or meringue powder and powdered sugar, creates a smooth, decorative finish that hardens as it dries. While sugar cookies are rich in flavor and aesthetic appeal, they are generally high in sugar and calories with minimal nutritional benefits, making them an indulgence rather than a staple. The royal icing further adds refined sugars, contributing to their sweet taste but increasing their calorie density. These cookies are best enjoyed in moderation, as they lack significant fiber, protein, or essential vitamins. Ideal for festive occasions, they highlight creativity more than health-focused eating.
