Grandma's Microwave Caramels

My Grandmother made the best ever to die for 

Caramels! And they were made in the microwave. We 

all had to stop by for a visit if the family tree said 

"Grandma's making caramels" and believe me it spread 

fast and you had to be even faster to get there if you wanted 

any. They went fast. These are so easy to make, I even do it 

with my 3 year old Grandson Jackson. It takes longer to cut the papers 

and wrap them then it does to make them.

So buttery they melt in your mouth.

1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 cup light Karo syrup

Opt: nuts you can add these if you want in the last stirring

Combine all ingredients in a big microwave safe bowl. 

Cook 6 minutes in the microwave on full power stirring every two minutes.
Pour into a lightly greased or buttered 8 inch or 9 inch square baking dish.

 If you want, after they are cool you can cut them and wrap in wax paper.
