This one is really easy and I think it's tasty.

Penuche Frosting

1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup hot whole milk or cream
powdered sugar (about 3 cups)

Melt butter in a large saucepan.
Add brown sugar and bring to a boil.
Continue cooking for 1 minute until mixture thickens.
Let set 15 minutes.
Mix in hot milk.
Add powdered sugar gradually till spreading consistency.
If it gets too thick add a little milk.
