Made with simple pantry staples like powdered sugar, pure vanilla extract, and your choice of milk or heavy cream, this silky glaze is perfect for drizzling over cakes, cookies, donuts, or sweet breads. A pinch of salt adds a subtle flavor boost, balancing the sweetness for a perfectly luscious finish.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps.
Add the vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of milk or heavy cream to the powdered sugar.
Whisk the mixture together until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, gradually add more milk or cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Stir in a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness and enhance the flavor.
Use immediately to drizzle or spread over your desired baked goods. The glaze will set slightly as it dries.
