I've experimented with several recipes and this is the simplest and best I've had. You might be tempted to use simple syrup (who has superfine sugar?), but that changes the mix. So easy to make ur own: Place sugar in your food processor and pulse till it's almost powdery. Then you're set! (I keep some in a jar)
