Honey Caramels...yum! Merry Blogmas #4

By the time this comes out, it will only be a couple days until Christmas. I had big plans now that we are newly retired, that i would be more organized then ever. I would slowly decorate the house in early December, the gifts would already be bought and wrapped and the Christmas menu would be sorted out and planned. None of that happened. Here it is 5 days away and i am scrambling. At least i got my families box mailed off but that was about all i managed to get done.
But today, i have made headway, got the tree up and decorated, gifts are wrapped (most anyways), and I got the trees along the road on our property decorated with big red balls.
Then i remembered i wanted to make a batch of honey caramels. I had found a new recipe and wanted to try. They were pretty darn good and who doesn't love sweets at Christmas...so here it is.

Honey Caramels

3/4 cup cream, 1 cup honey, 6 Tbs butter and 1 1/2 tsp vanilla

In a heavy pot, add the honey and cream and bring to a boil,

you will need to boil it about 10 to 15 minutes until the temperature reaches 275F

Once up to temperature, remove from heat and add in the butter and vanilla. Stir well then pour into a 9x13 greased pan.

The good stuff

Cook until the temperature reaches 275F

Once up to temperature, add butter and vanilla, stir and pour into buttered pan

                                       

Once cool, cut into pieces and wrap in paper. Keep in fridge.

You can fancy them up with laying pecans down on the pan add the caramel then put some melted chocolate on top to make turtles.
Anyways i better go and finish off the last of the things on my list. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and may 2020 bee a great year.
