- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 1 cup of powdered sugar.

Add 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the mixture and continue whisking until smooth.
Add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness and stir to combine.
Adjust the consistency by adding more milk (1 teaspoon at a time) if the glaze is too thick, or more powdered sugar if it is too thin.
