Cinnamon Valentine Caramels

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 c. white sugar
• 1-1/2 c. light corn syrup
• 1-1/2 c. heavy cream
• 1 c. butter

  plus 1/2 T. for buttering the pan
• 2 tsp. cinnamon oil

  I used cinnamon oil from a Wilton candy flavorings multi pack, from Michael’s
• 1-1/2 tsp. red food color gel

  I used Wilton red “no taste” icing color, from Michael’s.

Instructions

• 1 Butter a 9″ x 13″ pan and set aside.
• 2 Place all ingredients except the cinnamon oil and the red coloring in a heavy
  medium sauce pan.  Cook over medium heat, stirring quite constantly, until it
  reaches 240°.  This will take awhile, but don’t wander too far away, as the
  temperature seems to rise quickly right at the end.  Take off heat and stir in
  the cinnamon oil and red coloring.  Pour into your buttered pan.  Let cool to
  room temperature, then refrigerate to set.  Take out of refrigerator and let sit
  for about 10 minutes before cutting.
• 3 If you want to gift these caramels, simply cut them into your desired size and
  wrap in wax paper.
