• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup packed brown sugar
• ½ cup heavy whipping cream
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups confectioners sugar

Directions

• In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine butter, both sugars, cream, and salt.
• Bring to a rapid boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometerreads 234° (soft-ball stage). Remove from heat. Add vanilla to pan (do not stir).
• Cool, without stirring, to 110°, about 30 minutes.
