2 teaspoons of vanilla extract works just fine, you can also use other extracts to flavor like rum extract or almond extract or I like to add pistachio flavoring in a little bit of green food coloring. I’m told you can also do it with chocolate, but I have never tried. I want to try with orange extract and zest.
