Desserts By Handsome...

Handsome surprised me by making dinner and dessert last night. We had a lovely meal of roast beef with carrots, mushrooms and onions in gravy, mashed potatoes, and spring peas. It was delicious. 

He also made a dessert of brownies, deciding they would be better with frosting. Man, was he right! He topped these brownies with a fabulous Caramel Frosting!!! It was soooo perfect and tasty that I figured you might like the recipe. So here you go. (I'll also link this in my Recipes page so you can find it again later if you need to.)

CARAMEL FROSTING   

                                • 1/2 c. (1 stick) of butter, room temperature

                                • 1 c. packed brown sugar

                                • 1/3 c. milk

                                • 3 c. confectioners sugar (powdered sugar)

                                • 1/2 t. vanilla extract

In saucepan, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar and milk. Bring to boil over medium heat, and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm. Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat with mixer. If frosting is too thick, add a little milk to desired consistency.

It couldn't be easier, and it's well worth trying. Now to keep my nose out of the brownie pan!

See you tomorrow!
