  1. I was so happy to find a frosting that didn't require many ingredients. BUT, I must have done something wrong, as this turned into a syrup, not frosting at all. It was a sticky mess and ruined my pan!
     
  2. This was good. I think we may have over beat it though as it was very difficult to spread.
     
  3. I did cut the recipe in half so it may have made the difference, but in the end, the sugar carmelized and I ended up with some tasty caramel hard candy. Not smooth frosting! Should it turn into frosting, before the browning starts to occur??

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a full-time student at a University of Wisconsin campus, with a double major in Sociology and History. I have three adorable children, ages 9 yrs, 5 yrs, and our 2 yr old son. My nine yr old is in third grade. My 5 yr old is is in kindergarten. My littlest one is pleasantly plump. ;) We also have 2 cats. My daughter recently joined recipezaar under the name Miss Bean I also really like sewing. I make @ 1/3 of my daughters clothes. Reading is also a BIG staple in my life. One of my favorite ways to find a book is to walk into the library, pick a shelf and simply grab a book at random. I've read so many great books I probably wouldn't have found out any other way. I also like to camp and fish with my DH. He eats, sleeps and breathes fishing. He would like to one day start his own company, he hand ties and sells fishing lures locally. And he loves my cooking and will try anything at least once. ;) He works as a pressman at a local printing company. <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v426/mangomama/animations/?action=view&current=neil_patrick_Harris.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v426/mangomama/animations/neil_patrick_Harris.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
