hi everyone =) im new to this forum so im not sure if im suppose to post this here but it seemed like the best place..
okay so my situation is that on sunday night (feb 13th) i tried to make these chocolate carmel pecans and i did everything according to the recipe except i couldnt get the mixture for the carmel to get up to 255 degrees i could only get it up to around 230.
the mixture kept almost bubbling over so i couldnt raise the heat anymore and i felt like i was leaving it on the heat too long trying to get the temperature off so i put it in a pan and try to let it set
however it has now been 24 hours (recipe said it should take a little over an hour) and the carmel still has not set
im guessing that it was because i couldnt get it to the right temperature but what im asking is if...theres anyway i can get the mixture to set! i dont want to waste all those ingredients for nothing =(
any help is greatly appreciated! thanks so much =)
