Steps:
- Butter your pan. Mix the cream and the milk together in bowl. Pour about half of this to a large heavy pan (I use my pressure cooker). Add all the other ingredients except the vanilla. Cook over a medium-high to high heat, stir the mixture constantly. When mixture turns a light caramel color, begin to add the remainder of the cream very slowly in a thin stream (it's important that the caramel not stop boiling at this point). Cook to a firm, soft ball. (240 - 248 degrees F on a candy thermometer). If you use the cold water test (drop a stream of caramel from your wooden spoon into a glass of ice water, pick up the caramel from the bottom of the glass and see if you can roll it into a ball. If you can, bite into and see if is firm enough to your taste). Start testing the caramel when the bubbles change from the lighter frothy type to the heavy lava-type bubbles. When the caramel has reached the desired stage, add the vanilla extract and stir in vigorously. Pour the caramel into the pan and cool. Remove from the pan, and cut into 1" wide strips. Cut across the strips again so you have about 1" square caramels and wrap each in a 4" square of wax paper. cook's notes There is a lot of time involved in this from beginning to end, but it's not hard to do, and I've never been disappointed. People will be very impressed when you share them. If you've never made caramels before you may want to read this. Choosing a pot: you will want to use one that is heavy, and has very tall sides, the caramel boils up to about 3 times it's actual volume during the first part of the cooking process, you'll also want a wooden spoon with a very long handle, or your hand and arm will feel like they are being steam cleaned. Start when you can plan on having enough time to complete the cooking without distraction, I usually choose a time when all my children are settled down for the night. Since you will be sitting on the counter or standing by the stove stirring for a while, bring a book to read, the cordless telephone, and something to drink, also bring a glass of ice water if you are going to test the caramel with out a candy thermometer. If after all is said and done, and you feel the caramel is too soft you can return it to the pan and cook again. I'd probably pour it into jars and warm it up for a treat on ice-cream.

- Line a 9x9-inch pan with a parchment paper sling. It helps to spray the pan with a little cooking spray first to help the parchment paper stick in place.
- In a large, heavy bottomed pot that is at least 4-quart capacity, combine the sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt, and 1 cup of the cream. Slowly heat over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heat resistant spatula, until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil.
- Heat the remaining cream in a bowl in the microwave for 1-2 minutes until hot. Slowly pour the cream into the caramel mixture, stirring constantly until combined.
- Continue to cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the caramel reaches 240-245 degrees F on a candy thermometer. This can take quite a while! You can also test the caramel by dropping a spoonful in a bowl of cold water and shaping it into a ball. If it is pliable and soft but holds it's shape, then it is ready.
