About
Vanilla Bean Sugar is so easy to make and makes you feel so fancy!
Vanilla bean sugar has so many uses, too! It really shines in coffee or tea. You can use it in place of normal sugar in any recipe, and it’s particularly wonderful in baked goods such as muffins, quickbreads, cakes and pies. Add it to your homemade ice cream recipes for an extra vanilla boost. Put it in your homemade jams – strawberry/vanilla jam is my personal favorite. It’s my secret ingredient in rice pudding. And it takes already decadent homemade whipped cream to a different level.
