Salted Caramel Butter Bars 🧈🍯🧂
Ingredients:
For the crust and topping:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
For the caramel filling:
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon flaky sea salt
Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. 🔥
2️⃣ In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together until creamy and smooth. 🧈🍚
3️⃣ Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. 🌾
4️⃣ Press half of the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let it cool slightly. 🥄
5️⃣ While the crust is baking, make the caramel filling. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the granulated sugar, light corn syrup, and vanilla extract. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to boil. 🍯
6️⃣ Reduce the heat to low and add the sweetened condensed milk. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens and turns a golden caramel color. 🌟
7️⃣ Pour the caramel filling evenly over the baked crust. Sprinkle the flaky sea salt over the caramel. 🧂
8️⃣ Crumble the remaining dough over the caramel layer, pressing lightly to adhere. 🍯
9️⃣ Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden. ⏳
🔟 Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and enjoy your Salted Caramel Butter Bars! 🧈🍯🧂
