Caramel Frosting!
Perfect for sweet tooth cravings.

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 fully dissolved. This process will take a few minutes—keep the heat low to avoid burning.
Add Milk:
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 to thicken it to the right consistency for frosting.
Cool Mixture:
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the caramel mixture cool slightly. It should be warm but not too hot when adding the powdered sugar.
Add Powdered Sugar:
Gradually add powdered sugar, starting with 2 cups, and mix well after each addition. Use a whisk or an electric mixer for a smooth and creamy consistency. Add more powdered sugar as needed to achieve your desired thickness.
Add Vanilla (Optional):
Stir in the vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor.

Once the frosting reaches the right consistency, use it immediately to frost your cake or cupcakes, as it will thicken further as it cools.
