I've always made caramels with heavy cream and milk and didn't know the candy can be prepared with just evaporated milk. The cooking method is slightly different and takes a little bit longer than with heavy cream.
Salted Goat Milk Caramels
recipe adapted from here
1½ cups sugar
1½ cups corn syrup
½ cup soft butter
2 cups evaporated goat milk
1½ teaspoons fine sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla paste
flaked sea salt, optional
- Line a 9 x 9 inch square pan with parchment paper; set aside
- In a medium saucepan, heat sugar and corn syrup until sugar dissolves. Clip a candy thermometer on the side of the saucepan and cook syrup on medium-low to 245°F. Add butter and salt, then slowly add milk while stirring constantly. Cook to 240°F, stirring occasionally. Remove saucepan from heat and quickly stir in vanilla paste.
- Pour into the prepared pan. Let cool completely. Cut into squares; roll in flaked sea salt if desired. Wrap in pieces of parchment or plastic wrap. Store in airtight container.
flaked sea salt makes these caramels taste even better

Hi This look like a fantasic recipe. I have a question Can you use fresh goats milk instead of the evaporated goats milk? I ask because I have a almost endless supply of fresh milk to use. Thanks so much. I very much want to give this recipe a try!
Angela,
Yes and it'll probably taste better than canned evap. You may have to adjust the cooking time.
I am 100% trying these with our fresh goat milk this wekend! Great pics.
We used fresh goats milk and they turned out wonderfully! But they are a bit 'mushy'. Any idea on how to make them just a little firmer?
Thanks!
Cook a little longer until it’s reaches 248 degrees after adding milk
