- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup half-and-half cream
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and continue to simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in half-and-half cream and salt and return to a boil, continuing to stir. Remove the caramel from the heat and allow to cool to lukewarm, then add vanilla.
- Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until smooth, being careful not to over-beat. If the frosting becomes too thick, hot water can be added to thin it out. Spread over a cooled cake and sprinkle with pecans. Allow the frosting to set before serving, about 15 minutes.
