Browned Butter Caramel Frosting
From krumkake 16 years ago
- 5 minutes to make
- Serves 32
I use this for cookies, cakes, angel food, banana bars, anything that you want a hint of rich, caramel-y flavor added to. It's very rich, and full of flavor - great on butter cookies!
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons butter shopping list
- ½ cup brown sugar shopping list
- ¼ cup cream or milk shopping list
- 2 cups powdered sugar shopping list
How to make it
- In a small saucepan, gently simmer butter just until it starts to change color (don’t let it burn – you just want to see the color change ever so slightly).
- Remove pan from heat and stir in brown sugar and cream.
- Return to heat and bring mixture to a boil; gently simmer for 1 minute.
- Remove pan from heat again.
- Stir in powdered sugar, beating until frosting is smooth and creamy.
- This frosting begins to harden as it cools, so if this happens before you are done frosting, just stir in a bit of cream or milk until thin enough to spread again.
Gently boil for 1 minute before adding powdered sugar
