BLACK LICORICE CARAMELS
I make these every year for Christmas candy and every March for my uncle on his birthday! I get requests for the recipe EVERY time I make these and always have to hide some when I take to family parties so the people who arrive late can have some too! Very easy!

Steps:
- In a large heavy pan melt butter on low-med heat; add sweet cond milk, Karo syrup, sugar and salt.
- Place a candy thermometer on side of pan, be careful to not touch bottom of pan.
- Stirring CONSTANTLY, cook on medium heat to 234 degrees.
- Remove from heat.
- Add Anise extract and black food coloring paste.
- Pour into a buttered 9x13" pan.
- Cool and cut into desired pieces.
- Wrap in wax paper.
- It will be gone before ya know it!
- * This caramel is soft and chewy. If you would like it more firm, cook until about 244 degrees. I find that using the brand Karo for the corn syrup works best, because some of the "off" brands contain water in the ingredients*.
