Ingredients
Powdered sugar
Milk, water, or juice
Vanilla extract
(Optional) Butter
(Optional) Flavored extracts (lemon, orange, almond, maple)
(Optional) Citrus zest
(Optional) Food coloring
Instructions
1. Sift 2 cups of powdered sugar into a mixing bowl to prevent lumps.
2. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of your chosen liquid (milk, water, or juice).
3. Stir the mixture with a whisk or spoon until smooth and well combined.
4. Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract or another flavoring of choice.
5. Adjust consistency by adding more liquid for a thinner glaze or more sugar for a thicker glaze.
6. If using food coloring, mix in a few drops until the desired color is achieved.
7. Use immediately by drizzling or spreading over baked goods.
8. Let the glaze set for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
9. Store any leftover glaze at room temperature in an airtight container for a few days.
10. Stir well before reuse, as it may thicken or crystallize over time.
Notes
Adjust the consistency of your glaze by adding liquid gradually to avoid making it too thin.
For a lump-free glaze, sift the powdered sugar before mixing with liquid.
Add different extracts, zests, or juices to customize the flavor to match your baked goods.
