Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for achieving a smooth, lump-free icing. Don't skip this step!
Feel free to adjust the amount of confectioners' sugar to your liking. If you prefer a sweeter icing, add a bit more. For a less sweet version, use slightly less.
This icing can also be used to frost cakes, brownies, or cookies. Just adjust the consistency as needed.

    This icing is amazing! It's so easy to make, and it tastes just like a Milky Way bar. My kids loved it!

    I was a bit hesitant to use candy bars in icing, but this recipe is a game-changer. The flavor is incredible, and it's so much better than store-bought frosting.

  • Walton Bogisich

    My icing was a little too thick at first, but I added a tiny bit more milk, and it was perfect. This recipe is very forgiving.
