Penuche Icing

Given by Grandma Theobald.  She made this more me once in college to show me how.  It was Grandpa T's favorite cake and icing.  I thought it tasted like the maple frosting on donuts.

1/2 c butter (or marg)
1 c brown sugar (packed)
1/4 c milk
1 3/4 to 2 c powdered sugar

Melt butter in saucepan.  Add brown sugar.  Boil over low heat 2 minutes stirring constantly.  Stir in milk.  Bring to boil, stirring constantly.  Cool to lukewarm.  Gradually add powdered sugar.  Beat until thick enough to spread.  If icing becomes too stiff, add a little hot water.

Grandpa T liked it on yellow or vanilla cake.  But you could make it on an applesauce spice cake too.
