Caramels

Makes a firm set but chewy caramel. Very good flavor! You will need:

2 cups sugar

1 cup light corn syrup (Karo or other)

3 cups heavy whipping cream USED IN SUCCESSION (I like Gold Meadow Old Fashioned Style)

Bring the sugar, the corn syrup, and 1 CUP CREAM to a boil, stirring constantly until the color deepens to a golden brown-beige color. Then add:

1 more cup of heavy whipping cream.

Cook again until the color deepens to a light golden brown. Add:

1 more cup of heavy whipping cream

Cook stirring constantly until candy thermometer reads 230. Remove from heat. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and stir well. Pour into buttered 13x9. Allow to set, cut into squares and wrap in squares of waxed paper.
