Zubereitung von Aunt Pittypat's Caramel Icing

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/2 cup milk.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves.
Continue to boil, without stirring, until a small amount of the mixture forms a very soft ball when dropped into a glass of cold water (approximately 235-240°F on a candy thermometer).
Remove from heat and carefully stir in 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter until melted and incorporated.
Let the mixture cool until lukewarm (approximately 100-110°F).
Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until thick, creamy, and of spreading consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
If the icing becomes too thick while spreading, place the bowl over a pan of simmering water (double boiler) to keep it soft, or beat in a teaspoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached.
This icing is perfect for filling and frosting a 2-layer 9-inch cake.
