Angeletti Cookies

1 cup butter or margaine (melted and cooled)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
3 tsp vanilla extract
6 large eggs
6 cups all purpose flour
2 TBSP baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

4 cups confectioners' sugar
9 TBSP water
1 cup multicolor candy decor

1) Preheat oven to 375'F. Grease two large cookie sheets.
2) In large bowl, whisk butter, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla, and eggs until blended. Cover dough with plastic wrap or waxed paper; let stand 5 minutes.
3) With floured hands, shape dough by level tablespoons into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets.
4) Bake cookies until puffed and light brown on bottoms, 7 to 8 minutes. With wide metal pactual, transfer cookies to wire racks for cooling. Repeat with remaining dough.
5) When cookies are cool, in small bowl, whisk confectioners' sugar and water until blended. Dip top of cookie into glaze. Place cookies on wire racks set over waxed paper to catch drips. Immediately sprinkle cookies with decors. Allow glaze to set about 20 minutes.
