Practically begged for this recipe from a friend of a friend after tasting it.It is so delicious! Only 3 ingredients and lots of elbow grease, but the results are so worth it. These caramels are divine! This recipe makes a lot, scale it down if you wish, but I think it would be a lot of work to make a smaller amount. Besides I enjoy sharing these around with family and friends. Ingredients:
3 (395 g) cans condensed milk |
3 cups white sugar |
375 g butter |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a large heavy based saucepan/pot.
2. Add sugar and condensed milk.
3. Bring to the boil and stir continuously for about an hour with a wooden spoon, on a medium to low heat (slow boil to a simmer).
4. Told you that you need some elbow grease for this recipe.
5. It is ready when it changes to a medium to deep brown in colour.
6. Pour the mixture into a baking paper lined tin.
7. I use a large roasting tin 9 x12 approximately.
8. Place in fridge to set.
9. Cut into small squares (it is very rich).
10. The amount of squares you get depends on the size you cut it into.
11. So my yield is an estimate.
12. I store my caramels in the frige as I like them firm and chewy, otherwise they will soften (still delicious though).
