You Must Make These Brown-Sugar-Caramel Frosted Cupcakes!
Love pecan pie, but tired of making the same old Thanksgiving dessert? Then bake these brown-sugar-pecan cupcakes with caramel frosting instead! Seriously, these cupcakes are the best dessert I’ve tasted in weeks.
The fluffy batter is rich, but light with a distinct browned-butter flavor. Although it requires a little time to make, the caramel frosting is absolutely to die for. It’s smooth and creamy with a sweet taste similar to caramel candies. The pecans tie the elements together and provide a breakfast-like texture to the cakes.
When I served these at a recent dinner party, I was shocked at how good they tasted. Everyone was simultaneously saying, “mmmm” and “these are amazing.” You simply must make these delicious cupcakes. Get the recipe after the break.
