adventures in candy making.

the other day, i set out to make some classic caramels. i was pretty excited given that i had a brand new candy thermometer in hand and a full on sweet tooth ( so much for all that thanksgiving pie ).

i faired pretty well. although i may have let the candy get past the desired 248〫mark. according to me, and the rest of my family who can't seem to get enough of these sweet treats, this is definitely a recipe for the keeps.

next up: salted caramels!
