Microwave Caramels!

I don't know if you have discovered the beauty that is the Tupperwave Stack Cooker yet, but you should if you haven't!  You can make ANYTHING in it.  IN THE MICROWAVE!  This week I tried my hand at caramels and boy did they turn out delicious!!!

They are super easy too!

1 c butter
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 c corn syrup
1 can sweetened condensed milk

Melt the butter in the largest casserole of your Stack Cooker, then mix in all the other ingredients.  Microwave on hi for 5 minutes, stir, then Microwave 5 more minutes.  Stir again and microwave for 3 minutes this time.  Test in cold water, it should be a firm soft ball.  If it's not ready cook for 1 more minute and test again.  Continue until it is done.  
Then pour into a 13x9 pan (or a large Tupperware vent n serve like the one pictured) and let set until cool!  I put mine in the fridge to speed up the process because I wanted to eat them :)  Bón appetít!
