Caramel Frosting

by 1 Comment

Caramel Frosting can be used for frosting many different recipes and it’s quick to make, using brown sugar, vanilla, half & half, butter and powdered sugar.

I initially made this recipe to frost my Zucchini Muffins but it can easily be used to frost cupcakes, cakes or donuts. It’s a very versatile frosting. I will be honest, I could eat JUST the frosting, I don’t really need something to put the Caramel Frosting on.
