ingredients

¹⁄₂ cup butter
1 cup brown sugar, packed
¹⁄₄ cup milk
2 cups confectioners' sugar

directions

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.
