Whipped salted caramel frosting will level up your cupcakes! This caramel frosting recipe works best with homemade caramel but will also work with your favorite jarred caramel.
With a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip one cup of whipping cream to stiff peaks. This should take about 2 ½ to 3 minutes.
In a separate bowl, combine the caramel, sea salt, and cream cheese. About 2 minutes.
Place the cream cheese mixture, the remaining cup of whipping cream, and the vanilla extract into the whipping cream that has already been whipped. Combine all the ingredients until they are combined and stiff peaks have formed. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
