How to make Caramel


Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup white granulated sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
4 tbsp salted butter (1/2 stick)
1 tsp vanilla extract

Grease a pan,
any pan, or line it with parchment paper. This will be used later to allow the caramel to set. In a large pot, combine all ingredients except the vanilla. Place a candy thermometer in the pot and cook over medium heat. Make sure the candy thermometer is not touching the bottom of the pan. Stir occasionally for about 20 minutes until the temperature reaches 250 degrees F. Add the vanilla, mixing it in well. Remove the pan from the heat, and pour the caramel into the greased pan or on top of the parchment paper. Allow the caramel to cool for about 15 minutes. When it is cool, cut the caramel into small, bite-sized pieces. Enjoy!
