Broiled Coconut Pecan Frosting

½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
½ cup light cream
1-½ cups shredded coconut
1-½ cups pecan halves


Melt butter in saucepan over low heat. Add brown sugar and cream and stir until smooth. Stir in coconut and pecans. Remove from heat.

Preheat broiler.

Spread frosting evenly over warm cake. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat until frosting is golden and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes.

Let cake cool to room temperature before cutting into squares.

** Goes GREAT with chocolate cake! :P
