I don't remember the last time I made caramels, but when this recipe popped up in front of me, I knew I had to try it! Wish I could tell you how many pieces I got from the batch I made, but I can't, 'cause two 40-year-old teenagers (yeah, right!) confiscated the sheet it on which it was cooling, & by the time I got it back, about 2/3 of it was gone! I kind of understand why, because they were great tasting, almost addictive! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's Pick A Chef event]
