BROWN-SUGAR ICING

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, milk, and butter in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the butter has melted and sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat, and whisk in vanilla and confectioners' sugar. If the icing is too thick to drizzle, stir in a little more milk. If it is too thin, add a little more confectioners' sugar. Let cool slightly before using.

BROWN SUGAR BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• In a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisk together egg whites, sugar, and salt. Cook, whisking constantly, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is warm to the touch.
• Transfer to the clean bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed until fluffy and cooled, about 15 minutes.
• Raise speed to high; beat until stiff peaks form. Reduce speed to medium-low; add butter, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, until fully incorporated.

BROWN SUGAR CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Melt butter and allow to cool.
• In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, butter, brown sugar, vanilla and almond extract. Beat with an electric mixer. When mixture starts to stiffen, stop mixer and add honey.
• Continue to beat until light and fluffy. Do not over mix, or it will collapse.
• Spread immediately and store cake in refrigerator.

BROWN BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• Heat butter, stirring constantly, in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it browns and becomes very aromatic, 5 to 10 minutes. Whisk confectioners' sugar into butter until dissolved and remove saucepan from heat; stir in milk and vanilla extract.
• Beat butter mixture using an electric mixer until frosting is smooth; add more milk if frosting is too thick.

BLONDE BROWNIES WITH BROWN SUGAR FROSTING

• Bake 20 to 23 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt 1/3 cup butter over low heat. Stir in 2/3 cup brown sugar; cook over low heat 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in milk; cook until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing well with spoon after each addition, until smooth and spreadable. If necessary, add more milk, a few drops at a time. Spread frosting over brownies. Immediately sprinkle with pecans. For brownies, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows.

BROWN SUGAR FROSTING

FLUFFY BROWN SUGAR FROSTING

Steps:

• Mix brown sugar, water and corn syrup in a medium saucepan.
• Bring to a full rolling boil. (Be careful, as it will rise, so make sure the sides of your pan are taller). Let it boil at medium to medium high until the syrup drops like a hair from spoon (approximately 10 minutes). Remove from burner and set aside.
• Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff.
• SLOWLY pour the hot syrup in a THIN stream into egg whites, beating constantly.
• Beat until frosting holds peaks, then blend in vanilla.
• Let cool to room temp, then store covered in the fridge until ready to use.
• The egg whites are cooked when the hot sugar syrup is slowly streamed into them. So no worries about raw egg whites!

CREAMY BROWN SUGAR FROSTING

Steps:

• Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add brown sugar; beat until well blended. Add powdered sugar 1/2 cup (scant) at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in orange juice concentrate and vanilla. Chill until firm enough to spread, about 30 minutes.

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE FROSTING

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, melt butter and add brown sugar. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes stirring constantly. Add milk, continue cooking until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Remove from heat. Beat in icing sugar in 3 additions making sure to combine thoroughly after each addition. Add vanilla and if required add enough milk to make a nice spreadable consistency. This makes enough frosting to generously cover one 9x13 cake with some leftovers or 12 large cupcakes. Delicious! Note: 1.5 times the recipe yields enough icing for a double layer cake (like Seany's sweetheart cake for instance)
