Mix two cupfuls of sugar, three-fourths of a cupful of milk or cream,
one generous tablespoonful of butter, and three ounces of
Chocolate. Place on the fire and cook, stirring
often, until a little of the mixture, when dropped in ice-water, will
harden; then stir in one-fourth of a cupful of sugar and one
tablespoonful of vanilla, and pour into a well-buttered pan, having the
mixture about three-fourths of an inch deep. When nearly cold, mark it
off in squares, and put in a cold place to harden. These caramels are
sugary and brittle, and can be made in the hottest weather without
trouble. If a deep granite-ware saucepan be used for the boiling, it
will take nearly an hour to cook the mixture; but if with an iron
frying-pan, twenty or thirty minutes will suffice.
