US Customary - Metric
Instructions
- In a saucepan, melt butter.
- Add the brown sugar.
- Bring to a boil, lower heat to medium low, and continue to boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add the milk and return to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and cool to lukewarm.
- Gradually add sifted confectioners' sugar. (I would highly recommend sifting this confectioners' sugar. It's such a pain to sift, but it ensures that the frosting will be extra smooth.)
- Beat until thick enough to spread. If too thick, add a little hot water.
