Thin with a little more water until you reach a consistency you like. Or you could use 1/2 the confectioners' sugar adding more until you reach a smooth sauce. Keep over pan of hot water to prevent hardening.
Easy to make puffs and cream. Had problems with the frosting. It was thick...no way could I drizzle. Followed recipe to the letter! Any thoughts?
