Powdered Sugar Glaze

This Powdered Sugar Glaze is my go-to for decorated cookies!  I've been making this one since 2007. 

 

 

It goes together fast and can easily be doubled/tripled/halved, and you can add any colors or flavoring you like.

 

It's great for piping and it's also great for the fill and flood method. 


It's so easy to work with, and sets up so nicely.

Strawberry Pizzelles

Pizzelles are one of my favorite childhood cookies and I'm constantly looking for ways to put a new spin on them.  Since one of my favorite summer fruits is strawberries, I swapped out the vanilla in the original recipe with strawberry extract. 

Easy Stuffed Waffles with Sweet and Savory Fillings

Stuffed waffles are a fun twist on the classic waffle—crispy on the outside and packed with tasty fillings inside. I recently got a stuffed waffle maker, and I’m loving how it turns waffles into little pockets of deliciousness! The best part? You don’t need a strict recipe because this is a perfect “clean out the fridge” meal. Grab whatever leftovers or fillings you have on hand, stuff ’em inside, and waffle away! Here’s what I tried this time, but feel free to get creative and make it your own.
