Does This Glaze Take Long to Make?
This recipe is very quick, requiring only a few minutes. By making the glaze from scratch, you can adjust the amount of milk and confectioners sugar to create the perfect drizzling, dipping, or frosting consistency for your needs. While this basic icing is vanilla-flavored, there are several variations you can make to match whatever baked good it will glaze.
Icing or Glaze
The terms icing and glaze are often used interchangeably. Theyre made the same way by combining confectioners sugar with liquid. Technically, icing is thicker than a glaze but not as thick as frosting and can be drizzled or spread over baked goods. A glaze is the thinnest of the sweet toppings and is easily pourable. With this recipe, you can actually make either a glaze or icing by varying the consistency.
