Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter
¼ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup toasted, chopped pecans

Steps:

  • In a shallow 6-inch saucepan, thoroughly mix brown sugar and flour. Stir in butter and milk, and cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Boil exactly 1-1/2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Allow to cool 5 minutes. Beat with a wooden spoon until mixture begins to thicken. Mix in vanilla and continue beating until frosting is the consistency of thick honey, no more than 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Immediately pour caramel frosting onto cooled cake and quickly spread with the back of a warm spoon before frosting begins to set up. Quickly sprinkle top of cake with toasted pecans. Frosting will set up completely in a few hours.
