Ok, first, I have to do everything the hard way. I got started then realized I had no evaporated milk. So I added another 1-1/2 cups of milk. It took much longer to cook down, but the results were beautiful and have that honey tang. It not as buttery as some other caramels I've done but that may be my fault.
