Ingredients

1.5 cups firmly-packed dark brown sugar 3/4 cup confectioner's sugar 1/4 cup flour 1/4 cup milk 3 Tbsp. butter 3/4 cup chopped pecans (preferred) or can substitute chopped walnuts 1 Tbsp vanilla extract Instructions In a medium saucepan, combine both sugars, flour, and milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk, until it just begins to boil. Add butter and stir until it melts and thoroughly combines. Stir in vanilla (be careful; alcohol in vanilla changes boiling point!) and nuts. Pour over cake to frost it. Be very careful as frosting is HOT and hardens quickly once it touches the cake. For best results, have 1 person pour the frosting onto the cake while another person uses a silicone spatula to spread it over each layer.
