For fondant you can make fondant which is delicious.  I like satin ice fondant.  It is tasty.  You could do buttercream icing.  A friend claims that with extra meringue powder it can get hard.  I’ve never tried it.  

Thank you, @Econlady would love to try satin ice fondant. I have mostly worked with the rolled ready made Fondant by Wilton. It has a sort of bitterness that I cannot explain. Not sure if it because of the extent of color in the fondant.

Would you have a recipe for the satin ice fondant that you could share or point me in the direction of a baker/cookier who would have this recipe on their blog or website?

Buttercream icing on cookies is something I haven't heard of, I don't have any experience working with buttercream, but love it on cupcakes, so I will try it out with meringue powder. I will have to figure out how much meringue powder will be needed to harden the buttercream without compromising the taste.

Thanks again
