Caramel Frosting RecipešŸ˜
Ingredients:
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 1/2 cup butter
– 1/4 cup milk
– 2 to 3 cups powdered sugar (as needed for consistency)
– 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Directions:
Melt Butter and Brown Sugar: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the brown sugar and stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. This process will take a few minutes, and it’s important to keep the heat low to prevent burning.
Add Milk: Once the sugar is dissolved, slowly add the milk to the saucepan, stirring continuously. Increase the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Boil: Allow the mixture to boil for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. This step helps in thickening the mixture to the right consistency for frosting.
Cool Mixture: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the caramel mixture cool slightly for a few minutes. It should be warm but not too hot when you add the powdered sugar.
Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar, starting with 2 cups and mixing well after each addition. You can use a whisk or an electric mixer for a smoother consistency. Add more powdered sugar as needed until the frosting reaches your desired thickness and spreadability.
Add Vanilla (Optional): Stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.
Use Immediately: Once the frosting reaches the right consistency, use it immediately to frost your cake or cupcakes as it will thicken as it cools.
Thank you! Enjoy!
