These are the best caramels I could come up with after a lot of trial and error. I wanted something chewy but not an everlasting gobstopper! I wanted chewy with a melting quality and I finally got it. Not an everyday thing for the calorie conscious but a yummmmy treat every now and then. Your yield will depend on how you cut them. I get approx. 45. Big or small you will love them! Ingredients:
2 cups white sugar |
1 1/2 cups white corn syrup |
2 cups heavy cream |
1 cup butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Butter a 9x13 inch dish well.
2. In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, 1 cup cream and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring often, then stir in remaining 1 cup cream. Heat, without stirring, to 242 degrees F (116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a firm but pliable ball.
3. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and pour into prepared dish. Refrigerate.
4. When cool, return to room temperature but still cool, cut into squares and wrap in waxed paper. I recommend 1 inch squares.
