One of my first experiences with cooking was helping my mother make these caramels. We'd make up to 12 batches each year. Today, I do at least 95 percent of the cooking at home, but my wife does much of the baking. -Robert Sprenkle, Hurst, Texas

Tips:

  • Use a heavy saucepan: This will help distribute heat evenly and prevent the sugar from burning.
  • Don't stir the sugar: Stirring the sugar will cause it to crystallize and become grainy.
  • Use a candy thermometer: This will help you reach the correct temperature for the caramel.
  • Be careful not to overcook the caramel: Overcooked caramel will be too hard and brittle.
  • Let the caramel cool slightly before using: This will make it easier to handle and will prevent it from being too hot when you eat it.
