Creamy Glaze

Ingredients:
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 - 4 Tbsp hot water

Melt butter in saucepan. Blend in sugar and vanilla. Stir in water, 1 tablespoon at a time until it is of the proper consistency.

This will glaze a 10 inch chiffon or angel food cake.

Variations:

Browned Butter Glaze: Prepare as above but when melting butter, let it heat up until it becomes a nice golden brown color.

Butter Rum Glaze: Substitute 2 tablespoons white rum or if desired 1 1/2 teaspoons rum flavoring for the vanilla. Stir in hot water, 1 teaspoon at a time until it's the proper consistency.

Chocolate Glaze: This is not the same as the one posted separately!
Stir in 2 ounces melted unsweened chocolate (cool) with the sugar.

Orange or Lemon Glaze: Add 1/2 teaspoon grated orange or lemon peel to melted butter and substitute orange or lemon juice for the vanilla and water.
