Brown Butter Frosting Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat, swirling occasionally, until the milk solids in the butter have turned golden brown and the butter smells toasty, about 10 minutes. Pour the butter into a shallow baking dish, and refrigerate until it is solid but still soft enough that your finger leaves an indentation, about 25 minutes.
• Scrape the cooled butter into a large bowl (be sure not to leave any brown bits in the skillet), and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth. While continuing to beat, add the corn syrup, and beat until incorporated. Scrape down the side of the bowl. Adjust the speed to medium-low, add the confectioners' sugar and salt, and beat until smooth. Use right away or keep for up to 2 hours at room temperature in an airtight container.

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.

Steps:

• Place the butter and shortening into the bowl of a stand mixer and, using the paddle attachment, cream the butter on high until light and fluffy, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg and beat until well combined, approximately 1 minute. Turn off the mixer and add 1/2 cup of the sugar. Mix on low until combined. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Repeat until all of the sugar has been incorporated. Add the vanilla and continue to beat until the frosting is smooth and light, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 hours or refrigerate for up to a week. Bring to room temperature before using.

Steps:

• Melt butter in microwave for 3 to 5 minutes in a microwaveable bowl.
• Watch it closely after 3 minutes.
• Stir in sugar.
• Blend in cream and vanilla.
• Beat until smooth and spreadable.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put butter in 9" x 13" baking pan and place in oven to melt while it is heating. In a medium bowl mix together sugar, cocoa, flour and salt.
• Remove pan from oven when butter is melted and add butter to bowl. With wire whisk blend mixture until evenly combined. Add eggs and vanilla and blend with whisk until all eggs are evenly mixed inches Pour batter into pan (no need to grease-the remaining butter in pan will be enough to remove brownies). Bake for 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few crumbs attached-don't overbake. Cool on a wire rack. Frost with Browned Butter Frosting and drizzle with glaze. Cut into bars.
• For frosting:
• Place butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until butter begins to bubble and butter turns a light golden brown, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cool until lukewarm. Add butter, vanilla, powdered sugar and milk. Beat with mixer until light and fluffy. Spread on cooled brownies. Combine cocoa and water in a small zip-lock bag. Knead until thoroughly mixed. Snip a tiny bit off one corner of bag and drizzle contents over frosting.

Steps:

• 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.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, cook butter over low heat until lightly browned. Remove from the heat; cool slightly. , In a large bowl, beat the sugar, butter, 3 tablespoons milk and vanilla until blended. Beat in enough remaining milk to achieve spreading consistency.
