Instructions

  1. Sift the powdered sugar into a medium-size bowl. 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  2. Add the heavy cream a tablespoon at a time until you reach the consistency you'd like your icing or drizzle to be, whisking in between each addition. 3-5 tablespoons heavy cream*
  3. Add vanilla extract (or your favorite flavor). 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  4. Whisk well and immediately drizzle or spread over cookies, cakes or breads.

Notes

  • Powdered sugar is sometimes called icing sugar or confectioner's sugar.
  • Use a non-dairy milk if you'd like.
  • Instead of cream you can use milk, half and half or even lemon juice or apple cider. Whatever liquid you choose, just add it slowly to the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until the glaze is at the right consistency.
