Ingredients:  
Vegetable-oil cooking spray
4 c. heavy cream
2 c. light corn syrup
4 c. granulated sugar
12 T. unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 c. unsulfered molasses
1 t. vanilla extract
3/4 t. salt
1 t. ground cinnamon
3/4 t. ground ginger
3/4 t. freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 t. ground cloves
Directions:
Directions:
Lightly coat a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Line with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on short sides; spray paper.
In a large pot over high heat, bring cream, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and molasses to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until mixture reaches 248 degrees (firm-ball stage) on a candy thermometer, about 20 minutes.
Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla, salt, and spices. Immediately pour onto prepared sheet, without scraping pot. Let stand, uncovered, 24 hours at room temperature (do not move pan).
Generously coat a large cutting board with cooking spray. Lifting it by the parchment overhang, invert caramel onto the cutting board; use a sharp knife to loosen parchment, and remove. Cut into 1-by-1 1/4-inch pieces. Wrap each in cellophane or waxed paper.
