If you're in the mood for a sweet treat, these easy caramels are sure to satisfy your cravings. Made with just four simple ingredients, these caramels are quick and easy to prepare.
2 cups light corn syrup
2 1/4 cups brown sugar
1 can (14 ounce size) sweetened condensed milk
1 cup butter
sea salt, optional
Completely line a 9x13 baking dish with foil letting the foil hang over the edges. Grease the foil generously.
Combine the corn syrup, brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook until the caramel reaches 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer (soft ball stage).
Remove the pan from the heat and immediately pour the mixture into the foil-lined pan. Sprinkle with sea salt, if desired. Let cool completely then invert the pan and remove the foil from the caramels.
Cut the caramel into individual pieces and wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap. Store in an airtight container

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
