Brown Sugar Frosting

My friend SL posted this on her blog.  Its a favorite last minute go to icing for me.  I used it twice this summer alone when we had last minute company.  I topped a boxed cake mix (with a couple of added ingredients) with this amazing yumminess....

1/2 Cup Butter
1 Cup Brown Sugar
4 Tbsp Milk
2 Cups Icing Sugar
2 tsp. Vanilla

• Put butter & brown sugar in a bowl.  Cook for 2 minutes 
• Add milk and stir
• Microwave again for 2-3 minutes.  It should be boiling now. 
• Add the icing sugar and vanilla and whisk until everything has been incorporated and you no longer see the sugar.
• Resist the urge to stick your finger in the bowl for a taste...if you do, I will be sorry, IT'S HOT!
• Cool for a bit and then pour over cake.  Let it set for a bit.

Pecan, Brown Sugar, and Kahlua Baked Brie

Ingredients:

13.2 ounce wheel of Brie
2/3 cup pecans (2.5 ounces), toasted and chopped
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons Kahlua
crackers
1-2 sweet apples (like Honeycrisp or Gala)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350º F. Using a knife, score a circle around the top edge of the brie (leave 1/4 inch rim). Take a spoon and scrape the white rind off the center circle of the brie (to the inside of the 1/4" rim). Place brie on the center of and oven safe platter.
Mix the pecans, brown sugar, and Kahlua in a small bowl. Carefully place the mixture in then center of the brie and spread to the edges (staying within the 1/4" rim you left). Bake for 8-15 minutes until brown sugar/pecan mixture begins to bubble. Be careful not to overcook (the brie will literally melt and loose its shape if baked too long). You want it nice a warm.
Serve with crackers and apple slices.
