In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps and create a smooth texture.
Add the whole milk (or heavy cream), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the powdered sugar.
If you’re using unsalted butter, melt it gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, and then add it to the bowl for a richer glaze.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until it is smooth, glossy, and reaches the desired consistency for drizzling or spreading. If the glaze is too thick, add more milk (1 teaspoon at a time). If it’s too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.
Taste the glaze, and adjust the vanilla or salt if needed.
Use immediately by drizzling over desserts or transferring to an airtight container. If storing, refrigerate for up to 3 days. Let it warm to room temperature and stir well before reuse.
