Almond Sugar Glaze (Cranberry-Amaretto Bars)

A almond sugar glaze forked into its own recipe per the archive's rule that accompanying components (glazes, marinades, rubs, sauces, etc.) are kept as standalone recipes. It also remains inline in CRANBERRY AMARETTO ALMOND BARS, where it is originally used.

Ingredients

• 1 cup (240 ml) icing sugar
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) boiling water
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) butter
• 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) almond extract

Method

1. In a small bowl, combine sugar, boiling water, lemon juice, butter and almond extract.
2. With electric mixer beat lightly until the mixture is completely smooth.
