Caramel from Heather A.

1 cup butter

2 cups brown sugar

1 cup corn syrup

Combine all ingredients and stir constantly over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Once it is boiling you can stop stirring. Let it cook until it comes to a "firm ball stage" on a candy thermometer.

Remove from heat and add 1 can (14 oz) of sweetened condensed milk. Mix well.

This recipe is great for anything you need caramel for. I use it to make caramel popcorn, nut logs, turtles (candy) or even just to have plain caramel!
