No candy thermometer. No constant stirring. No stress.<\/p>\n<p>Now THAT is what I call baking!<\/p>\n<p>So again, go <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spendwithpennies.com\/6-minute-microwave-caramels\/\">HERE <\/a>for the original recipe, and then adjust your length of cooking time based on the power and age of your microwave. Shorter for a newer microwave, longer for an older one.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to dip your caramels in chocolate before sprinkling with sea salt, put some chocolate chips in a mIcrowave safe bowl and mIcrowave for 30 second increments, stirring each time, until melted.<\/p>\n<p>Submerge your caramels, one at a time, and pick up with a fork, tapping off the excess.<\/p>\n<p>Place on wax or parchment paper to dry and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.<\/p>\n<p>Let harden and enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I saw THIS recipe from Cook, Crave, Inspire for 6 minute microwavable caramels, I thought it was too good to be true.
