Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 2 cups sugar
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter
- ½ cup boiled cider
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp apple pie spice
Instructions
- Lightly grease an 8x8" baking pan and line with parchment paper with overhangs on opposite sides. Set aside.
- In a large, nonstick pot, combine cream, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and boiled cider. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce to medium-high heat and cook without stirring until the candy thermometer reaches 248 degrees Fahrenheit. It will take about 20-30 minutes depending on your stove and pot.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the salt and apple pie spice.
- Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared pan and let it stand for 12-18 hours at room temperature before cutting into 1" squares.
- When cutting the caramels, run a very sharp knife under hot water until it's warm to the touch then spray both sides with cooking spray and cut caramels in a sawing motion.
- Wrap caramels in wax paper.
