Kali's Carmel Recipe

Today Kali wanted to make carmel, so I helped her a little, but she made it mostly by herself. I just poured the hot carmel into the pan. It is real easy to make...and yummy!

Here is the recipe-

Microwave Caramels

1/2 cup white butter

1/2 cup white corn syrup

1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/2 cup pecans, chopped. (optional)

1. Using microwave-safe dish or large measuring cup, melt butter

2. Add syrup, sugars and milk. Stir well and microwave for 6-8 minutes. If you want soft caramels microwave 6-7 minutes and if you want harder caramels microwave for 8 minutes.

3. Pour into sprayed 8" X 8" dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

4. Cut into pieces. If you find it too firm to cut, warm in the microwave oven 30 seconds at a time until you reach desired consistency.

5. Caramels can be dipped into melted chocolate or individually wrapped in wax paper ( twist the ends)
