What you do: 

1. Warm all ingredients (except the powdered sugar) in a small pot on the stove under low heat, until thoroughly mixed and warm.
2. Remove from the heat and add powdered sugar.

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Thanks for the recipe! It was a hit for us.
I added soy milk and had to sub with pure cane syrup.
I don't always have vegan butter on hand and it's nice to find dessert recipes that call for oil, which means I can make them anytime.
It was just enough glaze to drizzle over an 8x8 cake; I used the Super Moist recipe. 
Your glaze recipe is a keeper :)  ... I now have the corn syrup, so I'll be making it again. Soon.

This is good even though it doesnt yeild much, I would suggest doubling it to have enough. I put this on top of a cinnamon roll recipe from this site and it turned out perfect. Two thumbs up.

Yum.  I used this to frost the Baked Doughnut Nuggets and it reminded me of the Krispy Kreme chocolate glaze, though I made it thicker than that (cuz I can  :)).

Wonderful glaze!  I used this on a 9" cake from a springform pan.  I had to double the recipe to cover the top of the cake.  One recipe doesn't go very far.  I don't use corn syrup so I used maple syrup instead and added a Tbs of brown sugar.  Worked great!

I used to not like cake because it was always so dry.  It's wonderful cakes like this one that are gradually showing me the error of my ways!!  Seriously, it is tasty.  And supermoist (the name doesn't lie), even after a few days.  It's also so easy to make.  I will definitely be making this one again and maybe try some type of icing or decoration.  Thanks for posting this :)

This glaze is very tasty, too - made it many times.
