RECIPE
Yields:
30 containers
|
BUTTER |
4 ounces |
|
SUGAR |
7 ounces |
|
LIGHT BROWN SUGAR |
7 ounces |
|
LIGHT CORN SYRUP |
14 ounces |
|
SALT |
1/2 teaspoon |
|
ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR -sifted |
8 ounces |
|
NUTS - any type chopped |
10 ounces |
|
CINNAMON - ground |
1/2 teaspoon |
|
VANILLA EXTRACT |
1 teaspoon |
1. In a medium sized saucepan, melt
the butter over medium heat. Then add the sugar, light
brown sugar, light corn syrup and salt. Stirring constantly,
bring the mixture to a boil.
2. Remove from the heat and stir in the sifted flour and cinnamon.
Then add the chopped nuts and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture
into a stainless steel bowl.
3. Place a silpat on a sheetpan.
4. Deposit 1 1/2 ounce scoops of the mixture onto the
silpat. Making sure you allow for spread, about 8" around.
Flatten the scoop into the size of a halfdollar.
5. Bake @ 350F for 10 minutes, until the entire circle is evenly
browned.
6. Remove from the oven, and carefully slide the silpat off the
sheetpan and onto a worktable. Using a spatula remove the caramel
circle from the silpat, and quickly drape over a glass or bowl
to create the container, or curve into a desired shape.
Note: If the caramel circle hardens on the silpat, simply
slide the silpat back onto the warm sheetpan. It will become
pliable again in a few seconds. |
