After two failed attempts at making my caramels this year, I decided that I was done making them again! Then my mother-in-law found this recipe in the newspaper. I tried it and it worked out perfectly and took 1/3 of the time! I don't think I'll ever go back to my old recipe!
Microwave Caramels
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Melt butter in microwave, in a glass mixing bowl. Add all other ingredients and stir very well. Microwave for 6-8 minutes (time varies depending on the microwave...mine were perfect at 6 1/2 minutes). Remove bowl from microwave and pour contents into an 8-by-8-inch glass dish that has been buttered or sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before cutting into 36 squares. Squares can be wrapped individually in wax paper.
