Reply to "Soggy Cookies"

I'm just a hobby baker so I'm sure you'll get more answers from more professional sorts :-)  However, I have had this problem before.  After you outlined and flooded them, where did you put them?  I bake 3/8" cookies because it happens less the thicker they are (at least for me) and leave them to dry overnight under an oscillating table fan, right out on my table (on cooling racks).  I found, that if covered before completely dry (RI), it was like having my cookies in a terrarium...the humidity in the air made my cookies soft and my icing had a hard time setting all the way through.  I keep them under a fan until 100% decorated and then package after thoroughly dry.  I do live in a sub-tropical environment...even last night, I notched the a/c down a couple of degrees to ensure the very high humidity we are experiencing would not effect all the hard work I did yesterday.
