I need a recipe, by TONIGHT, for "caramel frosting" that uses caramels. Needs to frost a 9x13 cake. Lost mine.
Any recipes for the frosting would be greatly appreciated.

I found this recipe but have never tried it so can't tell you how it is. http://www.askyourneighbor.com/recipes/319.htm

That is a little different from what I thought I did. I thought I melted butter with the caramels but if I can't find a different one I will try that one.

Thanks

There used to be caramel frosting in a can that you could buy, if you're in a pinch. I'm not sure if they still make it though.

Thanks. I will have to check that out.

I tried to find another one with butter instead but it uses caramel topping instead of caramels. http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/butt...0000001879940/

That is a good one!! I have used it several time, much easier than melting caramels!!

Grama Lehr, easy is good. Since you approve I'm saving this recipe. Thanks.

I think I will have to stop and get some carmel topping.
I have to help serve dinner to the Shriners tonight so will finish the cake when I get home.

Yes, I would probably finish the cake too and then pick another one up on the way. :lol: How kind of you to serve the shriners. What kind of cake did you make?
