Using 2-1/2" cutters, cut dough into desired shape. Place 1" apart onto unprepared baking sheet. Bake for 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Meanwhile, to prepare icing, combine powdered sugar, remaining vanilla, and milk in small a mixing bowl. If desired , color with food coloring. When cookies have cooled spread icing over cookies.
