Homemade Caramels

Homemade Caramels

1/2 cup butter (not margarine)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Using large microwave-safe dish, melt butter. Add corn syrup, sugars and milk. Stir well and microwave for 6-8 minutes, stirring half way through time. Pour into greased 8x8 pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cut into pieces. Wrap in wax paper (twist the ends).
I microwaved it for 8 minutes & they turned out perfect.

Some mysterious elf dropped some of these by my house on a plate of goodies. They were delicious!
