Penuche Frosting

Jump to recipe

If you’ve ever been to a fudge shop and tried brown sugar or “penuche” fudge…this is the frosting version of that.  You’re welcome.  The rich, buttery taste of brown sugar and the silky texture will bring the perfect touch to your favorite fall desserts.

Pumpkin cookies.

Apple quick bread.

Snickerdoodles.

Oatmeal cookies.

On a spoon…by yourself…with the lights out and the bowl of frosting in the other hand.  No judgment here.  Be prepared to meet your new favorite frosting!

I'm a long time cook/baker that makes food centric recipe videos to help the novice cook or welcome a seasoned cook that wants to focus on the food. I'm passionate about both Christmas and cooking. Once my baking gene gets activated in September, I want to bake all the things. Grab a cup of hot cocoa and come on into my kitchen!

  1. Oh this looks amazing! I definitely like the idea of just eating it with a spoon, but I sure can think of lots of other wonderful uses for fall treats too. What a great frosting! Thank you for sharing with the Hearth and Soul Link Party!

  2. My friend specifically requested this frosting for his birthday cake, but he wanted it with dark chocolate cake (he’s super unadventurous with dessert). Any tips to make it pair well with chocolate instead of spice? I’m considering a vanilla mousse filing in the cake (or putting this frosting between each layer) and small decorative additions with chocolate ganache. What would you do? Sorry for the short novel, and thank you for this lovely recipe!

  3. Hello…. if I use the brown sugar mixture warm and mix it with powdered sugar will it act like a thick glaze on the cookies so I can stack them?

  4. YUM! Penuche is my favorite fudge flavor. I bet this tastes great on all those fall desserts… would be good on chocolate cupcakes too. Pinned.
