This icing is not as hard as it sounds and it is absolutely the best caramel icing you will ever eat. Mine is a little runny when I put it on the cake, but it hardens, so you don't want to get it to hard before you frost cake.

How to Make Caramel Frosting
- 1To the browned sugar in skillet or pan, add water to make thin syrup. Don't panic, when you add the water mixture will become hard, just keep stirring.
