Caramel Frosting

Desserts

This caramel frosting is delicious. I have had this recipe for over 30 years. This smooth, sweet topping is perfect for cakes, pumpkin cupcakes, or apple fritters.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons milk, or as needed
1 cup confectioners' sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Description

Gather all ingredients.
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar and 3 tablespoons milk. Boil vigorously for 1 minute.
Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar.
Cool slightly, then beat in vanilla and remaining 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar. Add additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, if frosting is too thick.
