Ingredients
- 2 cups (4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 & ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 (11.5 oz) jar salted caramel sauce (I like Smuckers Brand
Simple Delights, but Trader Joe’s Fleur de Sel is great, too!) - Sea salt
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a 13×9″ 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. Pour the caramel 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. If the middle
jiggles a little bit, this is okay – it will continue to cook as it cools. Cool
completely, then refrigerate for at least an hour before cutting into squares.
