We saw these cute beach sugar cookies and had to make some. You can see how to decorate them at Make Me Cake Me

Cut out cookies in desired shape. Bake at 350* F. for 8-10 for small cookies and 10-14 minutes larger cookies. Do not over Bake! Edges should be slightly brown.

*1 lb. Powdered Sugar/half of a bag (3 1/2-4 cups) add more powdered Sugar if needed

Beat together into a slightly runny consistency. Let icing rest for a few minutes to let air bubbles pop. Then add food coloring of your choice and use pastry bags with small tip for outlining and bottles for filling in the middle of the cookies.
