This brown sugar icing glaze goes well with any of our Amish Friendship Breads, especially this Orange Cinnamon Amish Friendship Bread Bundt cake or any of these scone recipes: pumpkin, maple pecan, or date and pecan scones.
The key to this recipe is a quick whisk — keep it moving until all ingredients are incorporated. To reach your desired consistency, add milk to make it thinner or confectioners’ sugar to make it thicker. This icing sets quickly so be sure to have your cake ready to be iced!
