Salted Caramel Butter Bars image

I found this yummy recipe on The Domestic Rebel website. It is fabulous and soooo addicting! If you cannot find the salted caramel sauce, just use plain caramel sauce and add a bit more salt sprinkled on top.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cup(s) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup(s) granulated sugar
1 1/2 cup(s) powdered sugar
1 tablespoon(s) vanilla extract
4 cup(s) all purpose flour plus 2 tbsp
1 jar(s) (12 oz) salted caramel sauce, such as smuckers or trader joe's
- sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13x9" baking pan with foil, extending the sides of the foil over the edges of the pan. Spray the foil liberally with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar until creamy and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Lastly, beat in the four (4) cups of flour until a soft dough has formed. Press HALF of the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Refrigerate the remaining dough.
  • Bake the crust for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven but keep the oven on. In a small bowl, combine the caramel sauce and remaining 2 Tbsp flour until blended. Pour the caramel mixture evenly into the crust, then crumble the remaining dough on top to cover the caramel layer. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, and remember that there's salt in the caramel sauce, too
  • Return to the oven and continue baking for an additional 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and the caramel is bubbly. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
