Rezept
Zutaten:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 8 oz cream cheese (room temp)
- Pinch of salt
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Arbeitsschritte:
- Melt the butter in a light-colored pan (like stainless steel) over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown specks form and the butter gives off a rich, nutty aroma. Remove from the heat right away.
- Pour the browned butter into a separate bowl and let it cool slightly. Refrigerate until it starts to thicken and becomes partially solidified.
- Add the cooled brown butter, cream cheese, vanilla extract, and salt to a large mixing bowl, then use an electric hand mixer to beat until creamy and well combined.
- Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and continue beating until the frosting is light and fluffy.
