These are the best caramels that I have ever had. (They are soft caramels, not the hard, chewy kind. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup butter |
2 cups heavy whipping cream |
3/4 cup light corn syrup |
Directions:
1. Grease bottom and sides of square baking dish, 8x8x2 or 9x9x2 inches, with butter.
2. Heat all ingredients to boiling in heavy 3-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly.
3. Cook about 35 minutes, stirring frequently, to just under (about 3 degrees)soft ball on a candy thermometer.
4. For chewier caramels, cook until soft ball.
5. Immediately pour/spread in baking dish.
6. Cool completely, about 2 hours.
7. Cut into 8 X 8 rows (or desired size), using kitchen scissors or sharp knife.
8. Wrap individually in waxed paper or plastic wrap.
9. Store wrapped candies in airtight container at room temperature.
