Description

A sweet and creamy cinnamon roll icing that’s perfect for drizzling over warm, freshly baked rolls.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (or heavy cream for richer flavor)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps.
  2. Add the milk (or cream) and vanilla extract to the bowl.
  3. Whisk until smooth and creamy. If the icing is too thick, add a little more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time.
  4. Use immediately by drizzling over warm cinnamon rolls.

Notes

  • For a thicker icing, reduce the amount of milk slightly.
  • For a cream cheese variation, substitute 2 oz of softened cream cheese and reduce milk accordingly.
  • This icing can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Re-whisk before use.
