Directions:
Combine sugar, corn syrup, cream and salt.  Place over low heat and stir until sugar is dissolved.  Cook to 232 F., stirring occasionally.  Add butter and evaporated milk alternately.  Continue cooking to 242 - 244 F.  Test frequently in cool water after 240 F. to determine the consistency desired in the finished caramels.  Remove from heat and add vanilla, stirring only enough to blend.  Pour into a lightly oiled 9 x 13 glass dish.  Do not scrape the bottom of the pan.

Personal Notes:
I do not like using only the nutra taste or nutra sweet.  I like the mixed a lot better.  Estes texture is more like regular sugar.  I have not tried using Splenda at all.
