Salted Caramel Frosting

  1. Ingredients:
    • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 2 cups powdered sugar
    • 1/2 cup salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (or to taste)
    • 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional, for desired consistency)
    Directions:
    1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.
    2. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until combined.
    3. Pour in the salted caramel sauce and vanilla extract, then mix until smooth and fluffy.
    4. Taste and add sea salt as needed for that perfect salty-sweet balance.
    5. If the frosting is too thick, add heavy cream one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
    6. Use immediately to frost cupcakes, cakes, or cookies, or store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
