I am in love with brown butter. I have started browning butter for many of my all-time favorite recipes now. Honestly,  it’s magical. It is nutty, caramel-ly, fragrant, and rich. It adds so much depth of flavor to recipes.

Brown Butter Frosting is my favorite frosting recipe. I don’t know why I haven’t made it before now, but glad I finally discovered this treat.

I recently made this Brown Butter Frosting recipe for my Texas Sheet Cake and for my Best Banana Toffee Layer Cake. Y’all, it is the bomb-diggity!! So good!
