Instructions
- In a sauce pan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, butter, light corn syrup, and milk. Bring to a boil and continue cooking until thickened, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
- If you want to be sure that your sauce has thickened to the right consistency, use a candy thermometer and when it reaches the soft ball stage at 240 degrees F, it is done.
- Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla extract or other flavorings as desired.
Notes
Use this caramel sauce to make 5-10 caramel apples.
