Ingredients

  • 240 grams Powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar)
  • 3 tablespoons Whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth glaze.

Step 2

Add the milk to the powdered sugar, one tablespoon at a time. Stir the mixture with a whisk or a fork until smooth.

Step 3

Stir in the vanilla extract and mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly.

Step 4

If the glaze is too thick for your taste, add a few extra drops of milk. Conversely, if the glaze is too runny, add a small amount of powdered sugar until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 5

Dip cooled doughnuts top-side down into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip back into the bowl. Place glazed doughnuts on a wire rack to set for about 5–10 minutes.

Step 6

Serve and enjoy your perfectly glazed doughnuts!
