A rich, creamy and incredibly soft caramel. They take a little effort but are so worth it. After mine have set, I cut them into small pieces and wrap individually in waxed paper. I then put them far away so I can't get into them !
Ingredients:
1/2 lb butter (1 cup)
2 cups sugar
2 cups brown sugar
2 cups light corn syrup
2 cups evaporated milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 dash salt
4 teaspoons vanilla
Directions:
1. Carefully melt butter in heavy pan.
2. Add sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk and cream.
3. Stir together and cook slowly for 2 - 3 hours to 240 degrees or until a small amount forms a chewy ball when dropped into cold water.
4. Remove from heat. Add vanilla & salt. Pour into a well buttered 13 x 9 pan. Cool completely. Cut into small pieces & wrap.
