This coffee caramel frosting is a delicious way to top your favorite cakes and cupcakes. The rich flavor of the espresso and cinnamon make this frosting perfect for any coffee lover.
1 1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons espresso or coffee powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Bring the brown sugar, water, and espresso to a boil in a heavy 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. Cook, stirring often, until a candy thermometer reads 240 degrees F or a ball of mixture holds together when a small amount is dropped into ice water.
Remove from the heat and stir in the cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add the hot sugar syrup in a slow thin stream, beating constantly until stiff peaks form and the mixture is cool.
4 cups of the spiced coffee caramel frosting is enough to frost a 2-layer cake.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
If you're a fan of the menu at this American chain of restaurants which serves a variety of foods such as burgers, steaks, pasta, and seafood then you'll love this collection of copycat recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
