Hopkins County Caramel Candy
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter (no substitutions)
1-2/3 cups evaporated milk
1-1/2 cups chopped walnuts
pinch of salt
2 cups light corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla
Combine sugar, butter, salt, and corn syrup in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. Add milk slowly; candy should remain at a boil. Cook without stirring, to 244 degrees on a candy thermometer or until it reaches the hard boil stage. Stir in vanilla and nuts. Pour onto a large cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Cool and cut into squares.
So delicious you’ll forget how to breath.
