                Yum.  This is crazy good icing, but it doesn't make a lot, so you might want to double it.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup sifted confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons milk

Directions

In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat until nut-brown in color, about 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and pour butter into a bowl, leaving any burned sediment behind.

Add sugar, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon milk; stir until smooth. If the icing is too thick, add the remaining tablespoon milk, a little at a time, until consistency is spreadable. Let cool 5 minutes. Use immediately.

      Cook's Notes
