Steps:
- In a small saucepan spread the sugar evenly over the bottom of the pan and cook over medium-low heat. Don't stir. Just let it get all melt and gooey.
- Once the sugar starts to melt, use a spatula to drag the gooey sugar to the middle of the pan so that the outer edges melt evenly. Cook until the sugar becomes a light amber color, but do not stir.
- Remove sugar from the heat and carefully add in the boiling water. Just be sure to do it slowly because it can splatter! Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and the mixture looks like maple syrup. Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour two 8-inch round cake pans and line with parchment paper rounds on the bottoms. Pam for Baking is also a great option for greasing the pans. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the eggs into the mixture one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl, combine the milk and burnt sugar syrup.
- With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk mixture. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Beat until just combined, but do not overmix.
- Divide batter between two prepared pans and bake for 35 - 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes and then remove the cakes to a wire rack to cool completely. Spread penuche frosting between layers and over the top and sides of the cake.
- In a small saucepan, melt ¾ cup of butter over medium heat. Pour into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or into a large bowl with a hand mixer. Let cool for a few minutes.
- In the same saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar cream and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is melted and the mixture begins to boil. Watch closely so that the mixture does not burn!
- Add the brown sugar mixture to the melted butter. Add half of the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Add remaining powdered sugar and beat until combined. With the mixer on medium speed, slowly add in remaining butter 1 tbsp. at a time. Beat until smooth and combined.
- Cover the frosting and let stand at room temperature until it thickens a bit and becomes spreadable (about 10 - 30 minutes). Frost your cake layers and enjoy!

Steps:
- Make the cupcakes: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with liners. Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and cloves in a medium bowl. Combine the brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, pumpkin puree and vanilla in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the flour mixture and whisk until just combined.
- Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds of the way. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the tops of the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Whisk until the mixture is warm and the sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pan, add the vanilla and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until the frosting is cool and stiff glossy peaks form, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip; pipe onto the cupcakes. Brown the frosting with a kitchen torch.
BURNT SUGAR CAKE (BETTY CROCKER: CIRCA 1956)
This recipe is in response to a request for the Betty Crocker (1950-1960) version of the cake. I have tried to retain the authenticity of the period, hence the repetition of the ingredient amounts throughout the recipe. I hope you enjoy it. Mom used to make this one sometimes too!
