Oatmeal Spice Cake with Browned Butter Frosting

Serves: 16

Print this Recipe

Sugar and spice and all things nice make this a cake to remember! Top with vanilla ice cream for a little a la mode. Keep an eye on the butter when you make the frosting. You'll have more control over the browning if you use a heavy skillet and just let the frosting get light golden brown to ensure it won't burn.


   1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
   1 cup quick-cooking oats
   1 cup packed brown sugar
   1/2 cup granulated sugar
   1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
   1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
   1/2 teaspoon salt
   1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, if desired
   1/2 cup shortening
   1 cup water
   2 eggs
   2 tablespoons molasses
   Browned Butter Frosting (below)
   
   BROWNED BUTTER FROSTING
   1/3 cup butter
   3 cups powdered sugar
   1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
   2 tablespoons milk (about)
