Easy Coffee Icing Recipes

HOW TO MAKE COFFEE ICING

Steps:

• Prepare the strong-brewed coffee and set it aside. You can make some using a coffee maker or one part instant coffee and one part hot water. You can also use a shot of espresso.
• Pour the powdered sugar through a sieve into a bowl. This will break up any clumps that might be in the sugar, resulting in a smoother texture when you finish.
• Mix in the strongly-brewed coffee. Pour the coffee into the sugar while mixing the sugar briskly with a fork or a small whisk. You will get a thick, syrup-like consistency.
• Pour the glaze over your cake, cupcake, or pastry. Work quickly, as this glaze will harden up.
