Homemade Salted Caramels
"Homemade Salted Caramels are the best over the holiday season but are also great year-round. Creamy, chewy, buttery caramel with just a hint of sea salt on top will be gobbled down any time you serve them. The ingredients are super simple for these homemade salted caramels; you may have them all on hand already. Butter, unsalted – Unsalted butter is best as you control the salt later. Heavy cream – This is also known as whipping cream and gives the caramels that wonderful creamy taste and mouth feel. Water – Just good old tap water can be used here. Light corn syrup – This helps prevent the sugar from crystallizing in the caramels and is an important ingredient. White sugar – White sugar acts as a sweetener and is simple and easy to use. Sea salt – You want a flaky sea salt for the caramels and not too coarse. A sea salt, in my opinion, is much milder tasting and is perfect for caramels."
