How to make the maple glaze
Measure out the ingredients: Measure out the confectioner’s sugar, maple syrup, and milk or cream and add them into a medium bowl.
Mix: Use a whisk to mix all of the ingredients together until you have formed a smooth glaze with no lumps.
Adjust consistency: Depending on the type of dessert you are using, you may need to adjust the consistency of your glaze. If it is too thick, add a bit more milk or cream; if it is too thin, add a bit more confectioners sugar.
Drizzle: Immediately drizzle over your cake using a spoon or measuring cup.
TIPS FOR RECIPE SUCCESS
- Sift the confectioner’s sugar before using it in the recipe to ensure that there are no lumps or clumps. This will help create a smooth, consistent texture for your glaze.
- Make this glaze in a measuring cup to easily frost right away.
- Learn the proper way to thicken frosting quickly. Add the milk or cream gradually, one teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency. This will help prevent the glaze from becoming too thin or watery, which can make it difficult to drizzle or spread over your desserts.
- This icing will firm and harden up quickly so make sure to make it right before you plan to ice the cake.
