Caramel Recipe

A lot of people have asked for my carmel recipe so here it is:

Caramels:
1 stick margarine
1 stick butter
1 c. white karo syrup
1 box brown sugar - 2 1/3 c.
1 can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
1 t. vanilla

Microwave - This are approximates and you need to use a candy thermometer to go by the temps more than the time.

Cook margarine/butter on high - 2 minutes
Add syrup, brown sugar, and milk - stir well

Cook on high - 6 minutes
Stir
Cook on high - 6 minutes
Stir
Cook on high - 6 minutes or to temp of 220 - 240 degrees

Add vanilla and stir
Pour in well buttered flexible 9 x 13 pan (metal not glass)

Cool - put on board
Cut in pieces with pizza cutter then wrap in wax paper.

You can keep these even longer if you put in the fridge or freezer.
