Caramels

This year, i got a recipe for  the most delicious caramels

from a lady in my neighborhood. 

They were super easy to make, especially for 

someone who has never had candy making experience before. 

A lot of people have asked for 

the recipe. 

So I decided to share!

Caramels

• 2 cups sugar
• 1 1/2 cup Dark Karo Syrup
• 2 Squares Butter
• 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
• 1 tsp. vanilla

Combine sugar, karo, butter and 1 cup cream. Stir and bring to a fast boil for about 5 minutes. Add another cup of cream, slowly, one tbs at a time stirring in between. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally until it reached *soft ball stage. Add Vanilla. Pour in buttered 8x8 inch metal pan. Cool in refrigerator. When cold, go around edges of candy with a sharp knife. Turn upside down (hard) until candy falls out. Cut into strips and then into pieces. Wrap in wax paper and enjoy!

*Soft ball stage- after the caramel has been boiling for awhile and you can feel it start to thicken, but it in a bowl of cold water (to cool it down) and you can roll it into a ball and it will kind of hold the form. 

You don't want to cook it too long, or it won't be soft chewy caramel!
