Easy Caramel Frosting

 

1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter

1 cup packed dark brown sugar

Dash of salt

1/4 cup whole milk

2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Method

 

1. Place butter, brown sugar and salt in a medium-size heavy saucepan over 
medium heat. 

2. Stir and cook until the mixture comes to a boil (about 2 minutes). 

3. Add milk, stir and bring the mixture back to a rolling boil, then remove the 
pan 

from the heat. 

4. Add the confectioners; sugar and vanilla extract and beat with a wooden 
spoon until the frosting is smooth.

5. Use immediately, while still warm, to frost the cake of your choice. 

6. It is a loose, pourable frosting when first made. 

7. If frosting hardens too much while you are frosting the cake, simply place 
the pan back over low heat and stir until the frosting softens up.
