Instructions

Step 1

Line the bottom of an 8x8 square pan with plastic wrap or parchment paper, letting it hang over each side.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugars and cream, stirring together to combine.

Step 3

Cook in the microwave for 4 minutes, then stir and cook for another 4 minutes. Note: The cooking time may vary depending on the wattage of the microwave you use.

Step 4

Add the vanilla and butter and beat at high speed with an electric mixer until it thickens and loses its gloss, about 2 minutes.
