    I'm back home and was given a recipe that one of the ladies had. It was the same one I had. I always double it.

    1/2 C butter
    1/2 C cream
    1 C sugar
    Cook to soft ball stage
    Add 14 melted carmels
    Beat until consistency to spread

    Thanks for all your help

    Mom's Caramel Icing

    1/2 stick of butter or margarine
    1 cup light brown sugar
    1/4 cup milk

    Put all together in small saucepan and bring to a hard rolling boil.
    Remove from heat at this point and add about 1/2 box confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar). Beat or stir with whisk till it loses its gloss and pour over cake while it is still fluid enuf to pour. Somtimes it will seem like it is little thin yet, but it sets up fast when it begins to cool.l

    RAChhap, you got my curiousity so I had to look this up. Of course the first thing to come to mind when looking at the picture was to put chocolate chips on top of the frosting. Looks wonderful!
