Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Prepare a 9-by-9-inch pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- Combine the corn syrup, cream, milk, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar is melted and the mixture is smooth. Wash down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming.
- Insert a candy thermometer and bring the candy to a boil. Stirring occasionally, cook the caramel to 240 F (soft-ball stage).
- Once the candy has reached the proper temperature, remove it from the heat and immediately stir in the peanuts.
- Pour the candy into the prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer.
- Allow the mixture to set for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Once the caramel has set, cut it into small squares to serve.

CREAMY CARAMELS
I discovered this caramel recipe in a local newspaper years ago and have made these soft buttery caramels ever since. I make them for Christmas, picnics and charity auctions-and they are so much better than store-bought caramels. Once people have a taste, they ask for the recipe. -Marcie Wolfe, Williamsburg, Virginia

HOMEMADE CARAMELS :)
These are so good they taste like a name brand candy outlet when you use the nuts. You can make these without nuts too. I use more nuts than called for and use 2 cups total of half & half. Got this recipe from a friend and everyone loves it. I put them in the refrigerator until starts to set and then I take them out so they don't get too hard. Enjoy!! If for some reason they set too long and get hard, pop them in the microwave for a few for a nice warm chewy caramel.

Perfect for gift giving! They suggest wrapping these individually in freezer paper. Use the waxy side against the candy then you can decorate the outside of the wrap. Another recipe from a local grocery.

OLD-FASHIONED CARAMELS
Before I was married, my future father-in-law would fix these creamy caramels at Christmas and send me some. The recipe has been in my husband's family for decades...so, when we got married, I learned to make them, too.
