- In a mixing bowl, combine the slightly cooled brown butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Beat the mixture on medium speed until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add a tablespoon of heavy cream and mix until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Taste the filling and adjust flavors by adding more salt or vanilla extract if necessary.
- You can use the filling immediately or store it in an airtight container.
