Ingredients
1 pint heavy cream
2 cups white sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup butter
1 cup evaporated milk
1 tsp vanilla
Directions
- Put parchment paper down on a sheet pan. Grease with no-stick spray.
- In a large pot, add a candy thermometer to the side.
- In the pot, combine all the ingredients EXCEPT the vanilla. Heat over medium heat. Stir very frequently.
- Keep cooking it. Cook until the mixture gets to 250º F (120º C). This will take awhile.
- You are still stirring and waiting for it to get up to temperature…
- Once it finally gets there, remove from heat and add vanilla.
- Pour out onto the prepared sheet pan, and let cool completely.
- Cut caramel into bite size pieces and wrap in either candy wrappers or parchment paper.
Notes
- If you would like to make salted caramel, add the salt after pouring out the hot caramel onto the sheet pan.
