    I stayed true to your recipe Jill but added cinnamon & pecan when I added the vanilla and of course salt at the end. It smells amazing and looks good so far , we will see when it comes time for cutting in 45 mins. I’ve tried caramel before and it sucked, so hopefully hopefully it turns out it 2020 girl!

    There is a clip on the thermometer to put it on the side of the pan so you can adjust it do not touch the bottom. I have made fudge and stuff for many years with a candy thermometer you don't just stick it in. Also I used to make the water test with ice instead of cold water

    Hello from Alaska. Got snowed in so decided to make these. Never have corn syrup on hand so use honey. Y2K I bought 120 #. Got a few quarts left. Any way I poured mine in silicone miniature brownie pan makes 24. Used the remaining caramel for pretzel 🥨 rods. Awesome. Your recipe is fast. Used to make this with the cream method took about 45 minutes. This is fast. Thanks for posting.

    I made this tonight and it's Soo good!! The only thing is my candy thermometer broke 🤣 but I did the cold water test and I thought it was a soft ball but it's been sitting out for about 40 min .. (it's still sorta warm underneath my glass pan) but when I cut it the top is fine but the bottom looks to be just under soft ball. Can I throw it back in the pot ? If so, do I bring it to a boil again and try to get it to 240? I have a new thermometer coming tmw

      It sounds like it needs to be cooked a little longer. You can melt it down in a pan again and cook a few more minutes. The longer it's cooked, the firmer the caramel. Good luck!

  • @paulinemegson8519

    If you try the cold water test, it’s better to take your pot off the heat as you test. Also it’s best to individually wrap the caramels as soon as they’re set , cold and cut because they’ll rapidly get impossibly sticky without wrapping. In wrappers they’ll keep far better. Tbh I’ve never had a batch of caramels last more than two days before being nommed so I know they’ll last that long at least lol.
