It is the holiday season which is always my favorite time of year when it comes to food. This brown sugar glaze is a perfect sauce to pour on ultimately anything. This is my go-to ham glaze recipe. I love how the molasses in the light brown sugar really brings the flavor to life in this glaze. And although I typically serve this on a baked ham, I also like to drizzle it over desserts such as cakes, cookies, or even side dishes like my Balsamic Brussel Sprouts.
