Lavon and Miss NiNi talk about and share a recipe for frosting.

BUTTERCREAM FROSTING—Miss NiNi

Ingredients:

• 2 T. butter, browned
• 1-1/2 c. powdered sugar
• 1 t. vanilla extract.
• 2 T. whipping cream
• 2-4 T. whole milk

Method:

In a small pan and on low heat, melt butter until color changes to light brown. (During this process, the melting butter will be spitting and sounding very noisy. Listen carefully. When the sound quiets, the butter should be brown and ready to add to the powdered sugar.)

In the bowl of an electric mixer, place powdered sugar. On a low speed, mix in browned butter. Add vanilla extract, whipping cream, and milk. (Amount of milk added will vary depending if you want to drizzle or spread the frosting.) Turn mixer to medium speed; beat until smooth.

Yield: Frosts about 1 dozen cookies.
