scratch caramels

A few weeks ago I became obsessed with making candy. In particular, delicious vanilla caramel. After about 6 attempts to make the perfect caramels, each batch had its own unique problem: too hard, too soft, burned particles, you name it. I never got the perfect candy. Really though, no matter what the problem was, it was still SUPER tasty!




this is the batch with the little burned pieces:


butter, sugar, vanilla, salt...




salty caramels!
