Take note
Make sure you have all the ingredients ready before starting. Be cautious when working with hot caramel, as it can cause burns. Keep children and pets away from the cooking area to avoid accidents.

1

Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all your ingredients before you embark on this delightful caramel adventure. You'll need 2 cups of sugar, 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a few drops of coral food coloring for that vibrant touch of color.

2

Cook the Caramel

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the sugar and stir continuously until it dissolves and turns into a golden-brown caramel. This will take about 10 minutes, so be patient and keep stirring to prevent burning.

3

Add the Cream and Salt

Carefully pour the heavy cream into the caramel while stirring constantly. Be cautious as the mixture will bubble vigorously. Stir in the salt and cook the caramel for another 2-3 minutes, until it thickens slightly. Remove the saucepan from the heat.

4

Add the Vanilla and Food Coloring

Add the vanilla extract to the caramel and stir until well combined. Next, add a few drops of coral food coloring and mix until the caramel reaches your desired shade of coral. Remember, we're going for a vibrant and cheerful color here!

5

Pour and Cool

Liberally grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper. Carefully pour the hot caramel into the prepared dish and spread it evenly. Let it cool at room temperature for about 2-3 hours, or until completely set and firm.

6

Cut and Indulge

Once the caramel has cooled and set, use a sharp knife to cut it into small squares or rectangles. Gently remove the caramel chews from the dish and enjoy them to your heart's content. Share them with friends or keep them all to yourself - we won't judge!
