Well, move over Ktaft!! I made these caramels so quick, and it was so easy. I didn't change a thing in the recipe. These are a LOT better than any you can buy. They're softer, and have a great caramel taste. Thanks for a winner, Charlotte!

We made these caramels every Christmas for gifts and to spoil ourselves. The caramels are far better than anything you can buy. Dead easy to make. Thumbs up.

Thanks so much! Caramels were really good they were a little darker then the ones I made before but this is a keeper will be great for the holidays.

I was going to post this recipe, but decided to do a quick search to see if anyone else beat me to it. It is truly the BEST caramel recipe I have ever made, I make them every year, usually 4 batches. Thanks Charlotte for beating me to it.
