Confectioner's Sugar Glaze - Twitchin Kitten - 10-27-2008
This is so easy to make it isn't funny! This is wonderful to drizzle on any coffee cake, strudel or plain cake when you don't want a heavy frosting.
Confectioner's Sugar Glaze
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
- 2 Tbsp butter, softened
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 to 2 tsp warm water
Put all ingredients except water in a bowl. Add ONE teaspoon water and mix, add more water VERY SPARINGLY and keep mixing until it starts to have a nice consistency.
DO NOT use water all at once to loosen up this recipe! This does not need much water and one or two drops can make all the difference between success and failure. The trick is just go a little at a time after the first teaspoon.
Variations:Use food coloring to color your glaze for a fun effect!
