This recipe is from another blogger and I had no problems making it the way as directed, but some folks have felt the need to stir to get the proper finished product. Sorry yours didn’t turn out, but I’m glad you have a good sauce!

Your instructions don’t specify whether or not to stir though, so I didn’t, and they didn’t turn out AT ALL. Not until I got down to comment #52, after the fact, did I see they need to be stirred. The “sauce” that I have now does taste good, so perhaps I will try again, using the other commenter’s advice.

After some research online I found many recipes recommending the 255-260 as the definition of hard ball stage. Maybe this will help some of the others in my situation!

On the upside now I have a whiskey caramel sauced cheesecake!

You have to stir the boiled sugar and the cream mixture. I tried not to, but it never properly mixed together until I stirred it. Also: the TBSP of salt on top is WAY too much. The caramel is delicious, but is so salty. Other than that, great recipe!

But these with all recipes must be adjusted for high altitude–I am little over 6000 ft. So must adjust 12 degrees higher for them to be right!!! It all has to do with the temperature and boiling point! Wish me luck.
