Reduce the heat and continue stirring until the mixture thickens and turns a rich golden caramel colour.
Add the milk powder gradually while stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
Add the vanilla flavour and a pinch of salt, then continue stirring until the mixture becomes thick, smooth and stretchy.
Pour the hot caramel mixture into a greased or parchment-lined tray.
Allow it to cool slightly until firm but still soft enough to cut.
Cut into small square pieces.
Allow the caramels to cool completely, then wrap each piece in candy wrappers.
Enjoy your delicious creamy homemade caramels!
