    These caramels melt in your mouth. They take a long time to make, but are well worth the effort

    1 cup milk
    1 cup whipping cream
    1 cup light corn syrup
    1 tsp. vanilla

    In 4-quart saucepan combine all ingredients except vanilla. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted (20 to 25 minutes).
