| Ingredients and my Nook with recipe |
 |
| Starting off. It takes a while to get it up to the right temperature. The recipe said about 15 minutes. I didn't have my heat up for that, as it took about 35 for mine to reach the necessary 248 degrees. |
 |
| Still cookin. |
 |
| It was great to watch the bubbles as the consistency changed. |
 |
| Getting more carmel-y |
 |
| Almost there! |
 |
| As soon as it gets to temp, the recipe says to hall ass though the last steps (ie: add vanilla and salt, then pour into cookie sheet with greased paper) |
 | |
| Yummmm...Caramel. Well, soon. You let it sit for 8 HOURS, then you can cut it. |
 |
| Inspired by my sister's love of salted caramels, I thought to try it. It was a win. |
 |
| And then they got wrapped. |
 |
| It doesn't look like 120 caramels, does it? |
 |
| One of the boxes for a friend |
 |
| The ingredients list on the inside. |
 |
| The boxes for Dan's workish party. |
 |
| The got all dolled up for the holidays! |
These look so wonderful. I'm incredibly jealous of the fun dress-ups the boxes got! Red sparkle tags? Multiple types of ribbon? Fun red labels? and a great box? Yes please.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to look for a recipe that I can attempt here in a place with no heavy cream...
love love love this - love december for the simple fact that everything becomes prettier and packaged in bright and glittery colors! Why dont we all do this more throughout the year - maybe something I will consider for 2013 :o)
