Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup karo syrup
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a heavy bottomed sauce pot, over medium heat, combine the butter, sugar, brown sugar, Karo syrup, sweetened condensed milk, and salt.
- Stir constantly with a flat bottomed wooden spoon or rubber spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan, until the sugar dissolves and the butter melts.
- Increase the heat to high and continue stirring until the caramel mixture reaches 225 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
- Once it reaches 225 degrees, remove it from the heat immediately to halt the cooking process.
- Allow the caramel to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving, then pour it into a serving dish and enjoy with sliced apples.
Notes
For a richer flavor, consider using unsalted butter.
Stir continuously to prevent the caramel from burning on the bottom.
Allow cooling time to avoid burns when serving.
