Caramel Recipe

By Lisa

1 cup butter, melted
2 1/4 cup brown sugar
dash of salt

in a heavy saucepan, melt butter and stir thoroughly
1 cup corn syrup
1 can sweetened condensed milk

Stir constantly to firm ball (check thermometer to find Firm Ball temp). Remove from heat. Add 1 tsp vanilla.

If you are making caramels, pour into a buttered pan. Let cool, cut in squares and wrap in wax paper.

If you are making caramel apples, let cool in pan until temp is 110 degrees and then start dipping the apples. I keep stirring the caramel so it keeps cooling evenly.
