Steps:
- Melt the sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt together in a large, heavy-bottomed sauce pan over medium heat.
- Once the mixture comes to a boil, add the evaporated milk a little at a time, taking 5-10 minutes per can and stirring constantly. A labor of love indeed.
- Once all the milk is added use a candy thermometer and bring the mixture to 238F-240F and not any hotter! Even a few degrees hotter will make them chewy instead of soft.
- Pour into a parchment lined 13x9 pan and cool completely. Cut and serve. Enjoy!

HAJAR'S CHEWY MELTY CARAMELS
These are the best caramels I could come up with after a lot of trial and error. I wanted something chewy but not an everlasting gobstopper! I wanted chewy with a melting quality and I finally got it. Not an everyday thing for the calorie conscious but a yummmmy treat every now and then. Your yield will depend on how you cut them. I get approx. 45. Big or small you will love them!

Steps:
- Butter a 9x13 inch dish well.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, 1 cup cream and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring often, then stir in remaining 1 cup cream. Heat, without stirring, to 242 degrees F (116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a firm but pliable ball.
- Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and pour into prepared dish. Refrigerate.
- When cool, return to room temperature but still cool, cut into squares and wrap in waxed paper. I recommend 1 inch squares.
