EASY MICROWAVE CARAMELS



Easy Microwave Caramels image

These caramels were "homework" for a candy-making class that I took some time ago...and I've repeated that assignment over and over since! I usually make an extra batch and freeze it for company or last-minute gift-giving. After only about 20 quick seconds in the microwave, the frozen caramel is soft enough to cut, wrap and pack into a candy jar.

Time 30m

Yield about 2-3/4 lbs.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup unsalted butter
2-1/3 cups (1 pound) brown sugar, firmly packed
1 cup light corn syrup
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Steps:

  • In 2-qt. microwave-safe pitcher, combine the butter, sugar, syrup, milk and salt. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, stirring once after every minute. When butter is melted, stir well. Attach microwave candy thermometer. Microwave on high for about 8 minutes or until mixture reaches 245° (firm-ball stage). No stirring is needed. Remove from microwave; stir in vanilla and walnuts. Let stand for 10 minutes, stirring well several times. Pour into buttered 13x9-in. pan (smaller 11x7-in. pan yields thicker candy as shown in photo). Refrigerate until cool. Invert pan. Carefully tap out whole block of candy; cut in squares. Wrap in waxed paper and store in refrigerator. (Can also freeze.)

EASY MICROWAVE CARAMEL POPCORN



Easy Microwave Caramel Popcorn image

Fast and easy and quite delicious, this is my daughter's favorite and a frequent request. Fortunately, I almost always have the ingredients in the pantry and it takes no time at all to throw together! We take this to every sort of kid-oriented activity for which we need to provide a treat. It makes a nice change from cookies and brownies and always disappears fast.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 16 cups (approx.), 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 cups popped microwave popcorn (2 microwavable bags)
3/4 cup corn syrup (Karo or generic)
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Pop the popcorn according to the instructions and empty into a large bowl (be sure to remove any unpopped kernels).
  • Mix the corn syrup and brown sugar together in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on hight for 3 minutes.
  • Stir butter and vanilla into the brown sugar/syrup mixture and stir until the butter is melted.
  • Pour over the popcorn and stir until thoroughly coated.
  • Spread on cookie sheets (greased or sprayed with cooking spray) and dry until desired hardness. (When hard, I break it up a little more as I put it into the serving bowl to make it truly bite sized.).
  • Prep time includes time to pop popcorn (about 3 minute per bag -- I usually measure out everything else while the popcorn's popping). Cooking time includes mixing but does not include drying time; however, that will vary depending on how hard you want your popcorn. We have a tendency to eat it pretty much right away!
