BEST HOMEMADE CARAMELS RECIPE
Ingredients
2 cup white sugar 1 cup packed brown sugar 1 cup corn syrup 1 cup evaporated milk 1 pint 2 cups heavy whipping cream 1 cup butter 1 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium size pot, combine everything except the vanilla. Monitor the heat of the mixture with a candy thermometer while stirring occasionally. When the thermometer reaches 245 degrees 240 degrees is also called soft ball stage, I like to cook mine to 245 degrees, remove pot from heat. Stir in vanilla. Transfer mixture to a greased 12×15 pan and let the mixture cool completely. When cooled cut the caramel into small squares and wrap them in wax paper for storage.
Notes
High Elevation: Cook caramel to 10 degrees less!! If you live above 4,000 feet, you’ll need to cook it to just 235 degrees F for it to be the perfect consistency.
