Recipe: Apple Cider Caramels

Ingredients

Boil 2 cups of apple cider in a saucepan until reduced to ⅓ cup, about 20 minutes.
Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
In a bowl, combine ⅔ cup of cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and the reduced apple cider.
In a large pot, mix sugar, ⅓ cup of cream, enough water to reach ½ cup, and corn syrup. Cook on low heat until sugar dissolves.
Insert a candy thermometer and simmer until the mixture reaches 234 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove from heat and whisk in the cream mixture, then add cubed butter until fully incorporated.
Return to heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the temperature reaches 248 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pour the caramel into the prepared pan and let cool completely.
Cut the cooled caramel into ½-inch squares and wrap each piece in wax paper.
