Directions
Blend together the brown sugar, butter, cream, vanilla, and peanut butter in a large saucepan. Place it over medium-high heat and keep stirring as it comes to a boil. Once it’s boiling, take the pan off the heat and stir in the confectioners’ sugar until everything is smooth and well combined. Let the frosting cool just a little, then pour it over your cooled cake. Spread it out quickly before it sets to get a nice, even layer.
Serving Options To Try
Spread this frosting on cupcakes, cakes, or cookies for an extra layer of flavor. It also pairs wonderfully with chocolate or banana desserts. You can even use it as a dip for fruit or pretzels.
Keeping Leftovers Fresh
Store leftover frosting in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Before using again, let it come to room temperature and give it a quick stir to restore the creamy consistency. It will keep well for up to one week.
