Cream Cheese Frosting with Brown Butter and Bourbon
This frosting pairs perfectly with banana, carrot, and spice cakes. Browning the butter gives it a deep, nutty flavor. As with many buttercreams, you may need slightly more or less sugar to reach your desired consistency.

Cook's Notes
For best results, use high-quality bourbon. I use Maker's Mark®. You may substitute 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract for the vanilla bean seeds.
