Regina Roggasch's Lazy Daisy Frosting

3 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons cream or milk
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup coconut
1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:
Place all ingredients in small mixing bowl and mix well. Drop by spoonfuls over top of hot or cooled cake and spread gently. Place low under broiler and broil slowly until bubbly and lightly browned. Serve warm or cold. Makes enough for an 8x8" cake pan; double the recipe for a 9x13" cake pan.

Notes:
Regina Roggasch contributed this recipe to the Jolly Neighbors Extension Club of Rose, Nebraska, for a hand-written cookbook that they made during the early 1960's. I have expanded the directions a little because all the recipes were greatly condensed to fit on one side of a 3x5" recipe card. Miss Roggasch was my first teacher at Duff Valley District 4. We moved to Rose near the end of my first grade year, so I only had her for a month or so.
