Caramels

Printable Recipe

Mix:

4 cups sugar
2 pt. light karo syrup

Bring to a rolling boil and add:

1 lb. butter
1 pint whipping cream
1 large can evaporated milk

Have the butter cut into small chunks and ready. Add butter and cream a little at a time so mixture never is quite boiling. Cook to firm ball, test in cold water. Remove from heat and add 1 T. vanilla. Pour immediately into pans that have been greased and lined with nuts. Cut into squares and wrap pieces in waxed paper.

Holly’s Note:
This is one of my mom’s candy recipes. Christmas wouldn’t be the same without her treats. Just looking at the recipes brings back memories. I just need to figure out how to make them all now!
