Title: Vanilla Sugar
Categories: Cookie Frosting
Yield: 1 Servings

1 1/2		Vanilla beans
2	c	Granulated sugar -- divided

Cut vanilla beans into 1-1/2-inch lengths. Place in food processor fitted with metal blade or in a blender and process. Add 1/2 cup of the sugar and process until vanilla beans are finely chopped. Add remaining 1-1/2 cups sugar and process until thoroughly incorporated. Strain sugar through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any large pieces of vanilla bean. Store in airtight container. Makes about 2 cups.

NOTE: It keeps for months in an airtight container and can be substitiuted for vanilla extract and sugar in almost any recipe. It is delicious when used in simple flavored sweets that allow the vanilla flavor to come through, or sprinkled over cookies just before baking.
