For the frosting, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar until the frosting reaches a spreadable consistency. Spread the frosting over the cooled cake.
