Caramel Icing

6 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup cream or 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Directions

  1. 1
    In a small pot on low heat, cook brown sugar, cream, and butter until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
  2. 2
    Add vanilla, salt and powdered sugar. Blend on low speed with an electric mixer, until all ingredients are incorporated.
  3. 3
    Then blend on high speed for about 3-4 minutes or until icing becomes light, fluffy and slightly thickened (it will also be lighted in color.) The more you blend, the lighter and thicker the icing becomes.
  4. 4
    Spread over cookies, cake or cupcakes. Makes enough icing for one 9- x 13-inch sheet cake.
