Category: Candy

 Ingredients List

  • 1 ts Unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 c Heavy cream
  • 1 c Granulated sugar
  • 1 c Light corn syrup
  • 6 oz Unsweetened chocolate,
  • Chopped
  • 1 ts Vanilla extract
  • 2 c Walnut pieces, toasted

 Directions

equipment measuring cup, measuring spoons, small nonstick pan, cook's
knife, cutting board, 10" by 15" baking sheet with sides, aluminum
foil, pastry brush, 3 quart sauce pan, whisk, rubber spatula,
serrated slicer.

Line a backing sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly coat the foil with
the melted butter and set aside.

Heat the cream, sugar, corn syrup, and chopped chocolate in a 3 quart
saucepan over medium heat. When hot, stir to dissolve the sugar and
chocolate. Bring mixture to a boil (about 20 minutes), than adjust
heat to low and simmer slowly for 40 minutes, stirring frequently,
until quite thick. Remove from the heat. Add the vanilla extract and
stir to combine. Add the chopped walnuts and stir with a rubber
spatula to combine. Pour the mixture onto the aluminum foil- lined
baking sheet, using a rubber spatula to spread the mixture to the
edges. Allow the mixture to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes,
then refrigerate for 2 hours before cutting.

Turn caramel out onto a cutting board. Use a serrated slicer to make
9 cuts across the width of the sheet of caramel at 1 1/2 inch
intervals. Then make 4 cuts across the length of the sheet at 2 inch
intervals. Individually wrap each caramel in plastic wrap or aluminum
foil, and store in the refrigerator until ready to devour.
