Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup karo syrup
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a heavy bottomed sauce pot over medium heat, combine the butter, sugar, brown sugar, Karo syrup, sweetened condensed milk, and salt.
- Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, scraping the bottom of the pot constantly until all the sugar dissolves and the butter melts.
- Raise the heat to high and continue stirring until the mixture reaches 225 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
- Remove the caramel from heat to prevent further cooking, and allow it to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.
- Pour the caramel into a serving dish and pair it with sliced apples.
Notes
For a thicker dip, allow the caramel to cook slightly longer to reach a higher temperature.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Reheat gently before serving.
Experiment with adding a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
