Units
- 1 cup powdered sugar

- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Place powdered sugar in a small bowl, and whisk out any clumps.

Notes
No powdered Sugar? To make powdered sugar, place half the amount of granulated sugar (in this case, ½ cup) in a blender. Blend until ground into fine fluffy powder. This will make 1 cup of powdered sugar.
For extra zingy flavor, add a teaspoon of finely grated lemon zest.
