Confectioners Sugar Icing Recipe
Yield: 1 servingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
1/4 cup: Unsalted butter,
1 tbsp: Water,
1/2 cup: Confectioners sugar,
Directions:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, stir together the butter and
water until the butter melts. Remove from heat and let stand until
cool, about 5 minutes. Add the sugar to the butter mixture and whisk
vigorously until smooth and thickened, about 1 minute. Use within 5
minutes, or the icing may become too thick to drizzle. If the icing
does become too thick, rewarm it for 2 to 3 seconds over low heat,
whisking constantly. Makes a scant 1/2 cup.
Variations: Orange flavor: Use 1 tablespoon undiluted thawed, frozen
orange juice concentrate in place of the water.
Brown sugar flavor: Add 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar to the warm
butter mixture and stir until the sugar dissloves; let cool, then
whisk in the confectioners sugar.
Clove flavor: Add 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves with the confectioners
sugar.
Lime or lemon flavor: Use 1 tablespoon fresh lime or lemon juice in
place of the water and add 1/2 teaspoon grated lime or lemon zest
with the confectioners sugar.
