Ingredients
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk (or heavy cream)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt (optional, to taste)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the powdered sugar.
Step 2
Pour in 2 tablespoons of milk (or heavy cream) and the vanilla extract.
Step 3
Whisk the ingredients together until smooth and well combined. The mixture should have a slightly thick but pourable consistency. If it's too thick, add milk 1 teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. If it's too thin, add powdered sugar 1 tablespoon at a time.
Step 4
Taste the glaze and, if desired, add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness. Stir to combine.
Step 5
Use immediately by drizzling or spreading over your desired baked goods. Allow the glaze to set for 10-15 minutes before serving.
