Note 1: Vidalia or other sweet onions (approx 2 1/2 lbs), 3 - 4" in diameter, stem and root ends removed, peeled and left whole

Note 2: Original recipe used 1/2 C (1 stick) butter or margarine

Note 3: Original recipe used one 10 oz can chicken or vegetable broth

Place the onions, butter and broth in a crock pot and cook on low 12-24 hours until the onions are deep golden brown and very soft. Different crock pots will take different amounts of time. ItÂ’s almost impossible to overcook this, so go for the deepest brown. Use the onions and liquid to flavor soup, stock, and stews. They make a wonderful addition to risotto, a perfect pasta sauce, and the worldÂ’s best pizza topping (drain off the liquid first).

I left in some of the butter so it would give the onions a more full, rich flavor.

These are so easy to caramelize this way.
