My dh loves ginger bread, mostly for breakfast. So I make it lots, and I put a glaze on top for sweetness. I mix powdered sugar and condensed milk together and mix untill desired thickness. I also add a drop or two of red food coloring to the mixture, something my dh finds appealing, LOL...............Kitty
