Todd's Birthday

Mike was in town on his way to Hawaii for a week, so we were glad to have him here for Todd's birthday today. We took Courtney to Margaritas and had Mexican food to celebrate. At home, I made a cake with easy homemade caramel icing. Never again will I buy the $10 premade kind at Everyday Gourmet. Here's the recipe.

CARAMEL ICING
Bring 1 stick melted butter, 1 cup packed brown sugar and 1/4 tsp salt to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add 6 Tbsp milk. Stir. Return to heat and bring to a boil another time. Remove from heat and cool 25 minutes. Stir in 3 cups sifted confectioner's sugar and beat until smooth. Ices 1 cake.
