Actually, don't take any, they are so good I don't want to share ;)
This time I used this recipe:
1/2 C butter
1/2 C light corn syrup (dark will not work!)
1/2 C light brown sugar
1/2 C white sugar
1/2 C sweetened condensed milk
1 t vanilla
Melt butter in large microwave safe bowl. Stir in syrup, and sugars, mix until dissolved. Microwave on high for 3.5 minutes. Scrape down sides and stir. Microwave on high another 3.5 minutes. Add vanilla, pour into buttered pan.
For easy clean up, I lined my 8x8 pan with parchment paper and buttered it, the caramels just lift right out of the pan that way. I left mine on top of a cooling rack long enough to cool then tipped it out to cut with a pizza cutter. I'm thinking next time I will refrigerate it a bit before I cut them, since they stuck together as I cut them, haha. Also, once I did put them in the fridge, they went hard as rocks, but they soften up quite nicely if you leave them at room temp for a bit again.
These were soooooooo easy, and I am very pleased with how they turned out. I will definitely be making them again. We always have sweetened condensed milk on hand since it's G's favourite treat, lol.
