This caramel frosting is decadent and creamy, and once cooled, it firms up to a soft but spreadable finish. It’s meant to go with our Old-Fashioned Caramel Cake, but you can absolutely use it for quick breads, cupcakes, and other layer cakes.
This recipe isn’t for the faint of heart. Take care to read through the directions thoroughly before starting, and pre-measure your ingredients so you’re able to work quickly when needed. Once you have a batch under your belt, you’ll be so glad you attempted it.
