Caramels I
I got this from a co-worker about 12 years ago. These are the best melt in your mouth caramels I have ever had, and I always have to make them for Christmas.

Ingredients
-
2 cups white sugar
-
1 ½ cups corn syrup
-
2 cups heavy cream
-
1 cup butter
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method
-
Butter a 9x13 inch dish.
-
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, 1 cup cream and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring often, then stir in remaining 1 cup cream. Heat, without stirring, to 242 degrees F (116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a firm but pliable ball. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and pour into prepared dish. Refrigerate.
-
When cool, return candies to room temperature then cut into 1 inch squares and wrap in waxed paper.
