Instructions
- 1
Whisk the confectioners' sugar with 2 Tablespoons of the milk or cream and the vanilla until smooth. Thin it with up to 1 more Tablespoon of liquid if needed, or stir in a little extra confectioners' sugar to thicken it.
- 2
Taste and add a pinch of salt if you like.
- 3
If you're not using it right away, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Tips & tricks
- Yield: Enough for one batch of cinnamon rolls, scones, or muffins, or one cake. Double or triple as needed.
- Equipment: glass mixing bowl and a small whisk.
- Liquid: Heavy cream gives a thicker, creamier icing; milk gives a thinner one. Half-and-half also works.
- Flavor: Add extra vanilla extract or the seeds from 1/4 of a vanilla bean. For lemon or orange icing, use fresh citrus juice instead of milk.
