Caramels

2 cups sugar

¾ cup hard margarine

2 cups whipping cream

1 ¾ cups corn syrup

1 tsp vanilla

syrup in a large saucepan. Heat and stir until mixture

just starts to boil and sugar is discolored. Boil slowly

for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until

mixture reaches firm ball stage (242 f-248 f; 116 c-120 c)

on candy thermometer or until a small amount dropped

into very cold water forms a firm but pliable ball.

Remove from heat.

Add vanilla and beat until thickened. Pour into a greased

9x9 pan. Cool. Makes 1 lb. Cuts into about 80 1 inch

caramels.
