Vanilla icing glaze (fat free)

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Sifted confectioners' sugar
tablespoon Skim milk or orange or lemon juice or; (1 1/2 to 2)
Strong coffee or bourbon
¼ teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

1. Whisk together the sugar, 1½ Tbsp milk or other liquid, and the extract. Add a few more drops of liquid if needed to make the glaze soft enough to drip from a spoon.

2. Drizzle lacy-looking lines of the icing over pastry, or spread it in a thin layer with the back of a spoon, letting it drip down the sides of the pastry or cake.

YIELD: ⅓ cup; enough for one 9-inch pie or cake or 12 large cream puffs NOTES : Glaze can be made several hours in advance but must be kept sealed with plastic wrap or it will develop a crust on top and dry out.
