I love how the applesauce leaves the cake moist and tangy. It's still supposed to be for breakfast, but I'm still munching on it right now.”

INGREDIENTS


1 cup powdered sugar, sifted; measure and then, sift
Grated zest of 1 lemon (orange) or 1/4 teaspoon pure lemon oil or orange 
2 to 3 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice (orange juice) 

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the powdered sugar and zest in a medium bowl.

2. Stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice to start to make a smooth glaze.

The consistency should be a little thicker than heavy cream. Add in a few drops more of lemon juice, if necessary.

3. Use immediately.

STORAGE
Press a piece of plastic wrap on top of the glaze and store at room temperature for a day or two. Stir before using.
