Chewy Homemade Cannabis Caramels

Step 1

Prepare a 9x9 sized baking pan by lining it with parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2

Add the cannabutter, sugar, corn syrup, and kosher salt to a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat and stir well. Heat until the mixture begins to boil, about 7-8 minutes.

Step 3

Slowly and gradually add the evaporated milk, making sure the mixture stays at a constant boil. This can take upwards of 10-15 minutes per can of milk.

Step 4

Add a candy thermometer to the pan and secure it to the side. Constantly stir until the mixture reaches 245° F.

Step 5

Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 6

Pour the caramel into your prepped pan and top with sea salt, if using.

Step 7

Refrigerate the caramels for a few hours, overnight is ideal.

Step 8

Once the caramels are cool and set, cut the caramel into bite-sized pieces and wrap it individually in wax paper if desired.
