Can this (or other buttercreams) be made with browned butter? Straight substitution?

The recipe calls for softened, not melted, butter. So while I think that browned butter buttercream would be amazing, it wouldn’t work in this recipe.

Thank you for your response. However, I'm referring to browned butter that has re-solidified in the fridge, as is done with browned butter pie doughs or mulled/compound butters. I know browned butter has lost moisture content, but not sure if this would impact the buttercream or not.
