Russian Caramels image

Practically begged for this recipe from a friend of a friend after tasting it.It is so delicious! Only 3 ingredients and lots of elbow grease, but the results are so worth it. These caramels are divine! This recipe makes a lot, scale it down if you wish, but I think it would be a lot of work to make a smaller amount. Besides I enjoy sharing these around with family and friends.

Time 1h15m

Yield 100 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 (395 g) cans condensed milk
3 cups white sugar
375 g butter

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large heavy based saucepan/pot.
  • Add sugar and condensed milk.
  • Bring to the boil and stir continuously for about an hour with a wooden spoon, on a medium to low heat (slow boil to a simmer).
  • Told you that you need some elbow grease for this recipe.
  • It is ready when it changes to a medium to deep brown in colour.
  • Pour the mixture into a baking paper lined tin.
  • I use a large roasting tin 9"x12" approximately.
  • Place in fridge to set.
  • Cut into small squares (it is very rich).
  • The amount of squares you get depends on the size you cut it into.
  • So my yield is an estimate.
  • I store my caramels in the frige as I like them firm and chewy, otherwise they will soften (still delicious though).
