Time 5m

Yield 1 9x13 cake

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces cream cheese
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups Cool Whip

Steps:

  • Beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla& salt until fluffy.
  • Fold in Cool Whip.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality butter: The quality of the butter you use will greatly impact the taste of the frosting. Look for unsalted butter with at least 82% butterfat content.
  • Cook the sugar mixture until it reaches the soft-ball stage: This is when the sugar mixture has reached a temperature of 235°F (113°C) and has thickened enough to form a soft ball when dropped into cold water.
  • Beat the butter until it is light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the frosting and make it smooth and creamy.
  • Add the sugar mixture to the butter gradually: This will help to prevent the frosting from curdling.
  • Flavor the frosting to your liking: You can add vanilla extract, almond extract, or other flavorings to the frosting to create different variations.

Conclusion:

Amish caramel frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used on a variety of cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its rich, buttery flavor and smooth, creamy texture, Amish caramel frosting is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
