Ok, so I'm not that great at taking pictures. This cake is very tasty, but you only need a little tiny slice! That might be because I put an inch of frosting on the top. Let's not get into the details too  much.

Anyway, here's the recipe for caramel frosting. Use in moderation:

1 cup butter

2 cups packed dark brown sugar

6 tablespoons of whipping cream

 1 tsp of vanilla

3 1/2 cups of icing sugar (or up to 4...judge as you are mixing it together)

Directions:

Melt the butter, then toss in the brown sugar. Bring it to a boil. Pour in whip cream and vanilla, then bring it to a boil again. Let it cool for about an hour, then put it in a mixing bowl. Stir in the icing sugar and mix until it is a smooth frosting-like consistency. Frost stuff!
