Notes
- Yields about ⅔ cup of glaze. Enough for one large bundt cake, 12 muffins, doughnuts or cupcakes, 2 quick breads, or about a dozen cinnamon rolls.

- Pro Tips
- Let your cakes, cookies or cupcakes come to room temperature before applying the glaze. If the cake is warm, the glaze will melt.
- If you added too much milk and you need to thicken the glaze back up, add more powdered sugar.
- If you want the thinner, add more milk. Only add a teaspoon at a time, otherwise it may get too thin and then you have to add more sugar.
- Why use a glaze instead of cream cheese frosting? A glaze is used for drizzling down cakes while a frosting is thick and is used for frosting the entire cake or cupcake. Glazes have an added benefit in that the cake won’t be as sweet, and it will have less calories than a frosted cake.
